UKismetTextLibrary::Conv_NameToText

function Engine Blueprint Since unknown

#include "Kismet/KismetTextLibrary.h"

Access: public Specifiers: staticBlueprintPureBlueprintAutocast

Description

Converts an FName to culture-invariant text. Backs the 'To Text (Name)' Blueprint conversion node.

Caveats & Gotchas

• Like all FName conversions, this is case-insensitive at the source — two names differing only in case produce identical output text.
• The result is culture-invariant, so it's suitable for internal identifiers or debug display but not for text that should be localized.
