The problem was that I didnt understood how the DragAndDrops controlls interact with the controller .
Google only gives “nifty dragndrop” examples where people use a controller just for their drag & drops, the simple solution in a project you already created with the “normal nifty building” is to use the events (f.e. “public void onDrop”) in your ScreenController.
(I tried to create a new one next to the already existing ScreenController which failed for me)

Well, presumably when you bumped into this issue then you fought with it a for a bit… maybe did some forum searching… etc… before finally giving up and deciding to post here.
So if you’d left the question up and provided a follow-up with what you’d found then you’d have helped the next guy running into the same issue… because presumably he/she’d have also done a forum search and maybe found your question with it’s nicely detailed solution.
In other words: don’t feel shamed if you figure out an answer after you’ve asked a question. Just follow up with a response to help the next person.
