I though that comparing the entire text to the previous one when everytime text is changed is not a good Idea, So I wish I could know the location of the cursor in the editor(not the mouse pointer).
But I dont see any vairables or functions to get the location. I hope I dont need to make my own text editor BP entirely. Need Your Help!!

i am not sure what you are trying to do here but separating the string/text to individual character array and comparing the new array of character to the old one might solve the issue

Thanks for the answer. But i thought that the way you recommended isn’t really efficient than just getting the location of the text editor cursor. Comparing all characters of the whole string every time to get a single word seems like a massive waste.
