I'm running LMMS 1.2.1 on linux with Carla and zynaddsubfx ( zyn Fusion) running inside Carla rack.
I can automate the zynadsubfx internal patrameters (16 off) from the carla / zynaddsubfx parameters tab.

I can't figure out how to make LMMS automate the parameters. There is nothing that I can control-drag onto the LMMS automation track and I can't find any documentation telling me how to do this.

Is there a way to do that or is this a known bug/issue?

Then LMMS cant automate

Thanks. Is there any intention to fix this?
It is a major drawback. The bundled zynaddsubfx is the old interface which also gives very limited scope for automation.
Is there any way to run the zynfusion interface under LMMS which will allow access the the 16 automation parameters.

Sorry there is not

A Pull Request that adds MIDI CC Controller automation support to LMMS has been merged. https://github.com/LMMS/lmms/pull/5581

It might be available in the next 1.3.0 alpha release.

There's also another waiting PR that improves upon Carla integration and lets you control and automate any (accessible) parameters provided by a hosted plugin directly: https://github.com/LMMS/lmms/pull/5846

Can't be sure if or when it's going to be merged in but... meh?
