Control container grayed out

[BonusCup]

Hi.  I'm on version 2023.1.1 patch 9.  I have used Control Containers in other workflows but I'm unable to add a single tool to a new Control Container.  I thought maybe there was a conflict so I deleted all of the regular containers but the 'Add to New Control Container' is still grayed out even when just trying to add a single Output Data tool.  

There are no inDB or Block Until Done tools in the workflow.  Has anyone else had this happen?

Are you able to drag a Control Container onto the Canvas?

@Carolyn I didn't even think of trying that.  Yes, I am able to.  Seems weird that I'm able to do that but not select a tool or group of tools and right-click and add them to one all at once.

@Carolyn, I figured it out.  Even though AMP is enabled in the User Settings, I had it unchecked under the Workflow Runtime to do some testing.  Checked the box and all good now.

Wow, that's fascinating. I never would have thought that having AMP disabled would cause the Control Containers to not work from the right click. Interesting!
