Local Assets won't load

Hello,

The asset manager seems to “load” local assets but I get a thumbnail with the image name only. It won’t preview or add to my project. I tested a hosted asset and that loaded properly and worked in the project.

I am running Catalina 10.15.1 and Blocs 3.4.3 (just downloaded yesterday).

I did some research on the forum and saw Catalina might block the app access in the privacy panel. So I went into system preferences, privacy, files and folders to check the box to allow access. Blocs does not show up on the list and I can not add any apps to the list (the + and - sign are greyed out even after unlocking).

I also deleted, re-downloaded and reinstalled Blocs.

Any ideas for a fix?? I am a Blocs newbie so forgive me if I am missing something obvious.

Thanks,
John

Is the app being run from the applications directory?

yes, it is.

If you right click the images and select open in finder so they open?

I am having the same problem. I am in Catalina as well. Did you ever figure this out? Thanks.
