Hi, I’m trying to build something like a dialogue system and I need to show a different amount of buttons in different dialogues. So I’ve created a dialogue Widget with a button inside and with the textblock inside button, then a want to duplicate this button and set text for each answer. Here is the code:

```
for(const auto& button : _buttons)
	{
		UButton* newButton = NewObject<UButton>(m_buttonTemplate);
		newButton = DuplicateObject(m_buttonTemplate, newButton);
		m_buttonsContainer->AddChildToVerticalBox(newButton);

		if(UTextBlock* text = Cast<UTextBlock>(newButton->GetChildAt(0)))
			text->SetText(FText::FromString(button.answerText));
	}

```

But the problem is that UTextBlock points to the same object ( like DuplicateObject function make a shallow copy not a deep) so all the buttons in the end has the same text.

Is there any way to do what I want?

Thanks!
