UKismetRenderingLibrary::DrawMaterialToRenderTarget
#include "Kismet/KismetRenderingLibrary.h"
Access: public
Specifiers: staticUFUNCTIONBlueprintCallable
Description
Renders a full-screen quad with the given material applied directly into the specified render target.
Caveats & Gotchas
- • This sets the render target even if it's already bound, which is an expensive state change — use BeginDrawCanvasToRenderTarget/EndDrawCanvasToRenderTarget instead if drawing multiple primitives to the same target in one frame.
- • Marked UnsafeDuringActorConstruction — do not call from a construction script.
- • The material's domain should generally be set to User Interface or it must otherwise be written to tolerate being drawn as a screen-space quad; a material authored for 3D surfaces may not sample correctly.
