Hello, all. This might be a dumb newbie question, but I need to ask:
In Studio, why is the 'Import' button disabled on about 90% of the models
that show up in the new project dialog? I'm logged in and everything, but
it appears that only a tiny fraction of the models can be imported. I realize
I'm probably overlooking something, but I'm new to this. Any help you
can give will be most appreciated.

Thanks!

Usually it is down to licensing / 3rd party intellectual property.
