Is it possible to add advanced modules (such as te problem type 'drag and drop v2') to content libraries? The advanced button is not visible. Any suggestions to circumvent this lack of functionality? Any plans to add this in the future?

So far only three component types are supported because they are the only ones known to work. However, other block types like drag and drop may work fine. What's needed is for someone to test content libraries with other block types and then add them to the list of allowed types (or remove the restriction if we find that most block types work correctly).

If you'd like to take this on and submit a pull request, the code that limits what block types are allowed is here, although some corresponding changes to the Studio UI are also required.

thanks! I thought that maybe this wasn't possible because you need to specify which advanced modules you require is done on course-level, and libraries seem to be available per edx-instance.
