I can’t seem to add the controls to the control output. Whenever I drag them over, I get a crossed out sign. How do I add the controls I have to the XPresso Editor?

I have found I can drag the icons and they say xpresso, but just not into the XPresso pool. Help!

I think I figured it out. I accidentally would click the XPresso tag and then add the User Data there. I should have been clicking the Controls null and then clicking the User data.

Thanks for updating your own question, jacob.peters.

Yes, dragging parts from a different object while the node is referencing another object will not work.

When you click on the node you try to use for “parameter dragging”, you will find in the Attribute Manager > Node> Reference which object needs to be used. (Another reason to have a suitable naming method.

Enjoy.
