UKismetSystemLibrary::SetStringPropertyByName
#include "Kismet/KismetSystemLibrary.h"
Access: public
Specifiers: staticUFUNCTIONBlueprintCallable
Description
Sets a named const FString& property on Object to Value via reflection. Internal helper the Blueprint compiler generates for dynamic property-set nodes; not intended to be called directly.
Caveats & Gotchas
- • Marked BlueprintInternalUseOnly, so it never appears in the Blueprint node picker — the compiler emits a call to it automatically when a Blueprint node writes to this property type by name; you can't drag it onto a graph directly.
- • Only matches an FStrProperty by name — an FName or FText property with the same name is a different reflected type and won't be written, even though all three hold text-like data.
