    On the Unity Visual Effect Graph Samples Github Repo, I've noticed the output contexts have custom properties that were embedded into the output particle contexts without the use of blocks.

    I'm wondering how does one set this up?

    Hi,

    It's because it's using a VFX Shadergraph with some properties exposed.

    To be able to see the shadergraph field, you need to enable experimental features in vfx preferences

    It might be a good idea to indicate if a block is using experimental features that are turned off in the vfx preferences.

    Though the features will not be experimental forever, in the mean time it is very unintuitive. Particularly that the blocks still seem to be fully functional, just hiding the shader graph property.
