UKismetStringLibrary::LeftChop
#include "Kismet/KismetStringLibrary.h"
Access: public
Specifiers: staticBlueprintPure
Description
Returns the leftmost characters of a string after removing the given number of characters from the end.
Caveats & Gotchas
- • Easy to confuse with Left: Count here is how many characters to drop from the end, not how many to keep — Left(S, N) and LeftChop(S, S.Len() - N) return the same thing.
- • If Count is greater than or equal to the string's length, an empty string is returned.
