Why can't we retarget ABP_Manny in 5.5? It's not showing in the auto-retargeter anymore!

This is frustrating. If I select a different source mesh then it appears (but then the retarget is whack for obvious reasons). I’ve also tried the drop-down which changes filters on the list there but no avail. If anyone can give me a workaround for this I’d hugely appreciate it…

In UE 5.5, right click on ABP_Manny, select “Create Template Animation Blueprint”, and give it a name. This template appears in Retarget Animations when a UE Mannequin Skel Mesh is set as source.

I found this answer in ABP_Manny not showing in the auto-retargeter in 5.5...?! : unrealengine

I don’t know what a Template Animation Blueprint is, and I was also having the same confusing problem you got with ABP_Manny appearing in UE5.4’s Retarget Animations tool, and not in UE5.5’s Retarget Animations tool.

I have the same problem…
