JI am. I just figured out that you can't drop objects into "Viewport 2" only the one in the main work area. Darn. That's unfortunate as I like working with a full screen. 
Still haven't figured out how to get access to the AI assistant.

DHey @Sam Smith 
Yes the Material Edit and Blend Material only works when using Megascans from the Dash content Browser (The Quixel tab or the FAB tab), and when using Poly Haven from Dash Content Browser.
And here is a video showing you how to open Material Edit manually if it does not open automatically as Bruddash said
The important step here is selecting something in the viewport that has the right material and then you will see the Material Edit option within the active list of tools in the tools panel

DRight now no, we use our own shader, so setting it up for another material would be a lot of work.
If you are dragging in a poly haven material from the Content Browser, you could open that material and explore for yourself self though!
We are planning on trying to look into general support for it, but it is down the line

DAre you able to open the project directly into an level without anything Dash?
Maybe an empty level, and then click the Dash icon
It can't update the materials on objects used from Dash when those materials has been loaded

XHello Team! I hope you had a beautiful weekend
Is there a way to make curbs easily ? I tried the border curve tool it doesn't work on my road mesh.
So i did a simple 4 points curve but I can't get the mesh right in the corners. I tried with "fit", "count", ""relative" ...

DHey!
Hope the same with you!
Good question!
For me Borders to Curves worked, but Path Scatter still gave me similar result sadly..
Some ideas:
1. You could try to make another Road tool and use the width settings to create the side meshes, like in my quick shitty video 1. Would have to do something similar for the short edges as well I guess
2. Using 4 separate curves and Path scatter should help with the corners I think
Otherwise I don't got much good ideas right now

Can you send me your email in a DM? Then I can see if I can find your sub!

RHey!
Try creating a new Level, then open Dash and make sure to update the files when the pop-up appears.
It will allow the files and shaders to be updated with the new proper connexions to the nodes.
After creating the level and updating dash you can go back to your previous level. and check if the issue is still there.
Cheers!

DJust to clarify a little bit, please close Unreal, then open this project again, but open it into an empty level (don't open any level where you have used Dash). Then click Dash, that should give you this popup. Once you have updated the materials through this popup, you can open a level where you have used Dash.
Reason here is if you open an level with Dash things, the materials will load and then you can't update them
And make sure you have Dash 1.8.5: https://www.polygonflow.io/download-latest-dash

DOkay got it, thanks for trying that. Very strange!
Can you try this idea instead?
Close UE, delete the polygonflow folder in this project, then launch UE (now it does not matter which level you open into) and then click Dash icon.

RIf you already downloaded some files and stuff.
Just deleting the Material Folder should do the work as well

HHey, do you know when DASH can support virtual texture ?
DHi! It is on the plans for the first half of 2025! But can't share anymore specific date than that
VHey guys, I installed Dash but then when clicking on the icon, nothing happens. I checked the output console and it says that there is some traceback error and about some .py files.
I checked if these files exists though and they do, so I am assuming that my default python version may be too outdated? If that's the case, which one is the one to use?

VI was thinking about changing the environment variable because I got
pypythonI currently got Python 3.12.3 and 3.11.4
DHey! Can you share the full error from the log? Maybe it is your Python version, but it could be an easier fix as well 
VHey, will do as soon as possible. I found somebody else having a very similar issue (if not even the same). This was his log and its very similar to mine:
I found this in DASH 18.5 is not initiating in UE 5.5
I found this in DASH 18.5 is not initiating in UE 5.5
Vso your dev said that I shall just reinstall but I tried that before coming here...
Vbut I will as said send my log asap
Vwas very excited to try dash out though 
Vyeah so I just checked again and its exactly the same error. I got the exact same log
VI am using the latest version of Unreal Engine and I can't open the dash content browser or the dash fab browser. I have posted a stack dump here: https://discord.com/channels/826908885024636989/1336822392923754627/1336822392923754627
Please take a look and get this fixed asap

DHey @AnderJaspo
I can't share an honest timeframe on that task, but it is something we have started at least, so we are working to solve it as soon as possible.
Do you mean that when you drag and drop an asset from the Dash Content Browser it is placed on the landscape volume instead of the underlying terrain? That is something that is solved already and will be coming in the next hotfix at least! For now, if you could temporarily hide that volume when placing, that would be my best idea right now I think

BHei! I just go the AI tagging to work... it is awesome!
DGreat x2!

DYees! Two ways, both from the tool menu in the tool, you can create a preset or duplicate the tool
