How do I get a Static Mesh into Foliage tool?

I have been trying to get foliage tool to create a forest, but whenever I add a static mesh of a tree by dragging and dropping, it doesn’t load into foliage tool (nor does it work with any other static mesh). Have I missed a step in getting it working, please can anyone help.

Hey BunHead,

first time you drag a Static Mesh to Foliage tool, you need to drop it on small bar that says “Drag static meshes from content browser into this area.”

Hope that helps!
