UKismetStringLibrary::Left
#include "Kismet/KismetStringLibrary.h"
Access: public
Specifiers: staticBlueprintPure
Description
Returns the leftmost given number of characters from a string.
Caveats & Gotchas
- • If Count is greater than or equal to the string's length, the entire string is returned rather than erroring.
- • A negative Count is clamped to zero, returning an empty string rather than counting from the right — use Right for that.
