Hide .lvclass extension on property nodes

Why all the redundant .lvclass everywhere? Please remove this from the property node, it makes the property node longer than it needs to be.

It's already possible.  Go to the Class Properties dialog, and on the Documentation page, set the Localized Name.

Wow, this makes me happy! 

 

perhaps the default in the future would be to remove the .lvclass?

Wow, that even works for the terminals when creating a VI in the library!  This makes me a happy person.

I'm kudoing this in the hopes that we can get the default behavior changed in a future version to set the localized name by default to be the class file name minus the .lvclass extension.
