Can't past material on to plane object

http://www.3dtotal.com/team/Tutorials/fiat500/fiat500_m01.asp In this tutorial they are showing you how to set up the bleuprints, I'm stuck at the part where you drag the material on to the plane object. When I want to drag it to the plane the cursor show that it's blocked. What am I doing wrong or have I forgoten to do unlock that?

This Asset Browser is unnecessary. It only for viewing pictures. But you can just drag image from Asset Browser to empty slot in Edit Material.

That part works fine, but draging that picture from the slot in the material editor to the plane object in a viewport is blocked.
Is there something I have to do in the material editor to unlock that? Change some setting or parrameters or something else?
Maybe the file format is wrong ? It's a jpg.

Found the problem. I had to change the setting of the view ports to smooth+highlights to get it working. He wrote it in his tutorial but I didn't see that:togo: .
Thanks for the help anyway.:thumbsup: :bowdown:
