Localization Dashboard preview, and explanation of UE4's text localization process

How do I get the localized text from enumerations? Currently, I have the following:



.h
UENUM(BlueprintType)
enum class ControllerSetup : uint8
{
    Conventional    UMETA(DisplayName = "Conventional"),
    Southpaw        UMETA(DisplayName = "Southpaw")
};

.cpp
FText UMyGameInstance::GetControllerSetupText(ControllerSetup controllerSetup)
{
    const UEnum* EnumPtr = FindObject<UEnum>(ANY_PACKAGE, TEXT("ControllerSetup"), true);

    if (!EnumPtr)
        return FText::GetEmpty();

    return EnumPtr->GetEnumText((int32)controllerSetup);
    //return EnumPtr->GetDisplayNameText((int32)controllerSetup);
}

I see the enumeration in the localization files, and it is translated. However, I can’t get the proper text for the selected locale.

Thank you.
