How do we retire a question that is no longer needed and does not have a solution?

To add to what @mtsrodrigues states above , the solution to my question, this button does not show up unless you hover the mouse pointer and interact with the playback screen. If you move the mouse pointer off the video window you will not see the copy button become available. nice feature, but it would be nice to see it as an option 100% of the playback time. Great session by the way. Nicely done.
Yes Claude31 I was not describing the issue. After re-reading this I was not clear. Here is a second try below. I wish I could add a screenshot, but it appears that this forum does not allow or have that feature as of today.
After updating to Xcode 11 the simulation selection menu started showing an identifier. This identifier may represent the absolute folder location name in the Xcode Application Bundle.
Simulation selection menu can be found on the main Xcode 11 window within the top options bar. This simulation selection is right of the red close app, yellow minimize button, and green full screen expand button. Still due right of the "run(landscape triangle)" build and simulator/device and "stop(square)" simulator/device buttons. You select your target simulator and hit the run button to run the latest set of code on a particular simulator.
The list is now oddly labeled like the following:
(image) iPad Pro (11-inch) (EFB8E9D8-0771-44AA-A039-BC11C82B9480)
(image) iPad Pro (11-inch) ( 2nd generation)(13.4)

(image) iPad Pro (11-inch) (5F4C7BF6-8C24-4021-83EF-B4AA307BA760)
Why is this "(EFB8E9D8-0771-44AA-A039-BC11C82B9480)" showing up and how do I get Xcode to label the possible generation of device and the iOS version that will run in the simulator?
95% of the simulators in this list have this attached to them and I have no way to know which version of iOS I am running against.
Is there a fix without uninstalling Xcode and re-installing a fresh copy?
Thanks Matt Ferguson
correction: "simulator folder on my device is showing up" should be "simulator folder on my macbook device is showing up". The plist inside each simulator folder has a key-value string and Xcode is defaulting to the folder name of the simulator.
