Instead of changing the text of the button, add text component as child of the button

If you came here via Google like I did - (looking for how to update the preview via C++), you should look at the SynchronizeProperties C++ function. Set the underlying UTextBlock text inside a virtual override of UUserWidget::SynchronizeProperties.
