Variables

  Type Name Description
Public variable uint32: 1 bOverride_CustomNearClippingPlane  
Protected variable uint8: 1 bResetInterpolation Set to true to skip any interpolations on the next update. Resets to false automatically.
Public variable FPlateCropSettings CropSettings Controls the crop settings.
Public variable float CurrentAperture Current aperture, in terms of f-stop (e.g. 2.8 for f/2.8)
Public variable float CurrentFocalLength Current focal length of the camera (i.e. controls FoV, zoom)
Public variable float CurrentFocusDistance Read-only. Control this value via FocusSettings.
Public variable float CurrentHorizontalFOV Read-only. Control this value with CurrentFocalLength (and filmback settings).
Public variable float CustomNearClippingPlane Set bOverride_CustomNearClippingPlane to true if you want to use a custom clipping plane instead of GNearClippingPlane.
Protected variable TObjectPtr< UStaticMeshComponent > DebugFocusPlaneComponent Component for the debug focus plane visualization
Protected variable TObjectPtr< UMaterialInstanceDynamic > DebugFocusPlaneMID Dynamic material instance for the debug focus plane visualization
Public variable FCameraFilmbackSettings Filmback Controls the filmback of the camera.
Protected variable TObjectPtr< UMaterial > FocusPlaneVisualizationMaterial Material used for debug focus plane visualization
Protected variable TObjectPtr< UStaticMesh > FocusPlaneVisualizationMesh Mesh used for debug focus plane visualization
Public variable FCameraFocusSettings FocusSettings Controls the camera's focus.
Protected variable float LastFocusDistance Most recent calculated focus distance. Used for interpolation.
Public variable FCameraLensSettings LensSettings Controls the camera's lens.
