UAnimInstance::Montage_IsActive

function Engine Blueprint Since 4.0

#include "Animation/AnimInstance.h"

Access: public Specifiers: ENGINE_APIconstBlueprintPureUFUNCTION

Description

Returns true if the specified montage is currently active (playing or blending out). Pass NULL to check if any montage is active on this instance.

Caveats & Gotchas

• An active montage includes one that is blending out — it has not fully ended yet. Use Montage_GetIsStopped to distinguish a truly stopped/ended montage from one still transitioning.
• If multiple montages are running simultaneously (stacked), this returns true as long as the specified montage is among the active ones, regardless of which slot it occupies.

Example

Gate logic on montage activity C++

void UMyAnimInstance::NativeUpdateAnimation(float DeltaSeconds)
{
	if (Montage_IsActive(AttackMontage))
	{
		// Suppress movement input while attack is active or blending out
		bBlockMovement = true;
	}
	else
	{
		bBlockMovement = false;
	}
}
