UKismetMathLibrary::MakeColor
#include "Kismet/KismetMathLibrary.h"
Access: public
Specifiers: staticBlueprintPure
Description
Constructs an FLinearColor from individual R, G, B, and optional A components. The Blueprint NativeMakeFunc for FLinearColor — this is the node that appears when you 'Make LinearColor' in the Blueprint graph.
Caveats & Gotchas
- • Components are in linear space, not sRGB. If you are matching a hex color from a design tool (which is typically sRGB), you must gamma-correct each channel with FMath::Pow(Channel / 255.f, 2.2f) before passing it here.
- • Values above 1.0 are valid for HDR emissive materials; they are not clamped.
