Layout container drag and drop issue

[#1]

Hi,

I am trying to use layout container and facing some issues during implementation. Below are the steps I used.

• I am using layout container - root in my editable template.
• Click on the policy icon as shown below.

• Selected only layout container from General Group and given the name of policy "policyA" and submit
  • Added the layout container in Layout Container [Root]

• In next step, I can see two container with two parsys.

• Unlock the child layout container.

• Set the policy for inner layout container And select the component you want to use in inner container.

• I can see the component available for my container, but when I try to drop the component in container, parsys is not allowing them.

I have used the exact same steps as mentioned in documentation. Can you please advice.

Thanks,

See this Guided Journey - we show how to set up the Layout container and then define a policy that sets components for it and then drag components on the page that is based on the editable template.
