they think adding a tool to the list is sufficient but they need to actually be assigning the tool to existing folders explicitly (and potentially update the project's default if they want that tool available for new folders).
This is the important bit. That the first destination should be adding the new tools to project defaults. tools attribute inherits from parents by default, so in vast majority of cases that is enough to propagate the new tool. In OpenPype this was an issue, but AYON's inheritable attributes are solving it quite well. Of course it's a different matter if it's clear enough that you need to add it to the project. We'll have a look at that point in the docs and emphasize it.
Thanks
Issue
New users often don't understand how Tool groups work - they think adding a tool to the list is sufficient but they need to actually be assigning the tool to existing folders explicitly (and potentially update the project's default if they want that tool available for new folders).
Additional context
Came up on discord here
Are you stuck now?
You have registered a tool but it's not available on launch in the application?
Go here:
Or create another hierarchy of folders, so that they immediately get the Tool you set in the template for that project.
