I am currently working on a synchronized animation system in UE 5.7 and am running into an issue with the Contextual Anim Component hierarchy. In my BP_PlayerCharacter, I have added the component (the ‘puzzle piece’ icon), but I am unable to parent it under my Capsule Component as seen in several tutorials; it remains at the bottom of the components list as an unparented Actor Component. However, it is able to be parented in 5.6.
Any guidance on whether this is a known change in 5.6-5.7 or if I am missing a specific Scene Component requirement would be greatly appreciated!
