Description

Default value is not used for input pins in a function when using text if the parameter's pin has been connected to another node. The text field is cleared after the parameter's pin has been used.

Steps to Reproduce
  1. Open the editor
  2. Open the level blueprint
  3. Create a new function
  4. Add a Text parameter to the input node of the function
  5. Compile
  6. Give the text a default (Example "ABC")
  7. Add the function to the event graph
  8. Notice the default Text is used ("ABC")
  9. Open the function
  10. Connect the text parameter pin to a print text (example image below)
  11. Drag a new copy of the function into the event graph
  12. Notice that the default text is not longer used

Expected: The default text in an input text parameter would appear as the default text after connecting the parameter's pin to another node
Result: The text field is cleared after the parameter's pin has been used.
