Cut (vuo.text.cut)

Outputs part of the input text.

• text — The original, whole text.
• startIndex — The position of the first character in the part of text to output. 1 is the first character in text, 2 is the second character in text, etc.
• characterCount — The number of characters in the part of text to output.

If startIndex is less than 1 or characterCount goes past the end of text, then the portion of text that falls within the range is output. For example, if characterCount is too large, then the part of text from startIndex to the end is output.

When finding the range of characters to output using startIndex and characterCount, this node counts each Unicode character in the text, including whitespace characters (spaces, tabs, line breaks).
