UBlueprintPathsLibrary::ScreenShotDir

function Engine Blueprint Since 4.0

#include "Kismet/BlueprintPathsLibrary.h"

Access: public Specifiers: staticBlueprintPure

Description

Returns the directory the engine writes screenshot files to when a screenshot is captured (e.g. via the console command or the HighResShot system). Equivalent to FPaths::ScreenShotDir() exposed for Blueprint/Python.

Caveats & Gotchas

• Lives under the Saved tree, so screenshots taken here are excluded from version control and won't ship with a packaged build.
• This is where screenshots are written to, not a live listing of them — the directory may not exist yet if no screenshot has been taken this session.

Return Type

FString

Example

Locate the screenshot directory C++
