Highlight original handle when using an alias

[ryanleichty]

When using a custom field handle (I love this feature by the way), it would be great if the original handle was highlighted as well. We've found it somewhat difficult at times to track down or simple see what the underlying handle is. Currently, you have to open the field settings and temporarily delete the custom handle to see what the original is.

I slapped together this UI idea, but definitely could be refined or more thought out.

Don’t really like the idea of showing two handles (or two field names) within the field layout element selector, but I just made it easier to see the original name/handle by adding a chip to the top of the settings slideout with info from the global field, for Craft 5.4 (#15619).

Awesome, that's a nice upgrade! 🔥

I still think having some visual indication within the field layout would be beneficial too. Given that you already have a pattern established with showing an icon for other modified settings, I think it would work well for this too.

Should I submit this as a new idea?

@ryanleichty Good idea, just made that change as well: (1492252)

The pencil icon will appear regardless of which attributes were overridden, and the specific attributes will be listed in its tooltip.

Nice, the pencil in the green looks even better. Thanks so much!

Craft 5.4.0 is out with both of those changes 🎉
