For example:
- Given the String "the quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog", the Offset 10, the action will return the a value of "the quick " in the Output parameter LeftString and a value of "brown fox jumped over the lazy dog" in RightString.
- Using the action again with the same String and an Offset of 100 will result in an error because the Offset value is exceeds the size of the String.
- Using the action a third time with the same String and an Offset of 0 will return the an empty string value in the Output parameter LeftString and a value of "the quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog" in RightString.
