How to make a variable "public" and editable when the eye icon next to it does nothing when i'm clicking on it ?

Hey guys for anyone still having issues with this as of unreal 5.3 here’s what happened:

This was the setup I had for the variables and it did not update (I tested and ensured the correct values were getting there it was only a matter of displaying in the UI).

Trust me, I reviewed every step of the way even remaking the texts in case they weren’t text fields (I was very desperate at this point).

After many hours I came up to a reddit post and as it turns out you just have to initialize the text first on a construct. This solved my issues and I hope helps you too. (Don’t use binding they are bad :stuck_out_tongue: )
