UKismetRenderingLibrary::ConvertRenderTargetToTexture2DEditorOnly
#include "Kismet/KismetRenderingLibrary.h"
Access: public
Specifiers: staticUFUNCTIONBlueprintCallable
Description
Copies the current contents of a render target into an existing Texture2D asset, overwriting its pixel data. Only works in the editor.
Caveats & Gotchas
- • Unlike RenderTargetCreateStaticTexture2DEditorOnly, this requires an already-existing Texture2D asset to write into rather than creating a new one.
- • Editor-only: has no effect in a packaged/cooked build.
- • The destination Texture2D's dimensions and format are not automatically adjusted to match the render target — mismatches can produce incorrect or corrupted results.
