UKismetStringLibrary::Conv_ColorToString

function Engine Blueprint Since unknown

#include "Kismet/KismetStringLibrary.h"

Access: public Specifiers: staticBlueprintPureBlueprintAutocast

Description

Converts a linear color to a string in the form '(R=,G=,B=,A=)'. Commonly used to log or display color values while debugging materials and UI.

Caveats & Gotchas

• FLinearColor stores components in linear space, not the gamma-corrected sRGB values shown in most color pickers, so the printed numbers won't match what you see in an editor swatch.
• There is no companion validity flag on this node — round-tripping through Conv_StringToColor assumes the exact '(R=,G=,B=,A=)' format is preserved unmodified.
