grammer, but after compiling with xcode, the binary plugin did not enter the VST3 folder. Instead, it was in the Build folder, and I had to manually drag and drop it every time I debugged. How do you set it? I have tried many methods, but they have all failed

1. Make sure you’re enabling the copy step for the same configuration as your building
2. Make sure you’re saving and regenerating the project files from the Projucer
3. Please try updating to the latest commit on the develop branch if you haven’t already
4. Check the output in Xcode, you should see a step run that says  
**Run custom shell script ‘Plugin Copy Step’**  
Check the output of that step
