Hi,  
i try to develop a box with expression input, exist any example to follow, or tutorial??  
I’d like to add the box to a view I’ve created containing various other boxes.  
Is my first experience with URcaps so i don’t know where to find help.

Hi @Elettrotec_AC14,

Unfortunately that is currently not possible. Best workaround is to make your node a parent and add one or more assignment nodes as children. That should give you some options.
