At the moment this feature is not exposed in the GUI. There is a PR: #30359 and I'm working on it at the moment so hopefully, in the coming days there will be a PR that people could test

I just wanted to test the creation of a child template in joomla 4. I have installed the nighly build of 4.1 and cassy.I have attached my system information.
For me, neither under Cassiopiea nor under Cassy does the Child Template button appear. It is still called Copy Template.
What am I doing wrong?

The nightly doesn't have the changes for the Child Templates. Go to https://developer.joomla.org/nightly-builds.html and select the last option there Joomla! 4.1. You won't need Cassy, Cassiopeia will work fine...

Thank you @dgrammatiko
I have installed that. In the System Informations you can see:

And you tried to create a child from cassiopeia or atum and didn't work?

[ghost]

I tried it with Cassipeia, but I did not see a "Child Template" button. Then I installed Cassy. I do see it either.
Now I tried it wit Atum. Here I see the "Child Template" button.
Where can my mistake be?

Is this a clean installation or an update?

[ghost]

Yes it was a clean installation.
I downloaded and installed a J4.1 Nighly again today. Now it also works with Cassiopeia. No idea why it yesterday did not work.
