Include	#include "Application/SlateApplicationBase.h"

Syntax

const double GetCurrentTime() const

Remarks

Gets Slate's current cached real time.

This time value is updated every frame right before we tick widgets and is the recommended time value to use for UI animations and transitions, as opposed to calling FPlatformTime::Seconds() (which is generally slower)

Returns

The current Slate real time in seconds
