Description

The Hierarchy panel does not show the full name of a widget the name of the widget starts with the default name (Example: Button) followed but an underscore and some numbers (Example: Button_42). Instead the Hierarchy simply shows the name with out the numbers (Example: Button) This makes it hard to find the exact widget needed because they all have the same name.

Example: User creates Button_1, Button_2, and Button_3. These will all show up as "Button" within the Hierarchy panel

Hierarchy

v [ ] Canvas panel
[ ] Button
[ ] Button
[ ] Button

Steps to Reproduce
  1. Open Editor
  2. Create a new widget blueprint
  3. Add three buttons to the canvas panel
  4. Notice that they all have the same name (Button) in the Hierarchy panel

Expected: The name of the button would be followed by the number that is given to it
Result: All buttons are named button in the hierarchy panel
