Drag & Drop problems
I must be doing something wrong; I have a terrible time doing a drag & drop action from the workspace to the score. I've tried straight D&D, with shift, with ctl, with alt, in & out of note mode, with and without a double click on the element, etc. All to no avail. This has occurred with a fermata, a breath mark, and other elements. What am I missing?

Some things must be added to a note, which will change colour. Some things must be added to a bar which will change colour. If there is no colour change, it means you have not attached it to something it can recognize.

Thank you xavierjazz! I was trying to drop the elements where they appear on the score.
FWIW, it is almost always easier to not use drag & drop at all, but to instead select an element in the score and then double-click the desired palette symbol. But either way you need to know what element in the score you will be attaching to the palette symbol to - usually a note or rest, but sometimes a measure.
