# From Create Button
Creating Soap ScriptableObjects
Expose the reference directly on your class and mark it as `[SerializeField]` (or make it public):
```csharp
public class MyCustomClass : MonoBehaviour
{
[SerializeField] private FloatVariable _floatVariable;
}
```
In the Inspector, click the **Create** button.
By default, this generates a new Scriptable Variable in the currently selected folder in the Project window. This behavior is called **Auto** creation mode.
In the [settings](/soap/custom-windows/soap-window/settings.md), you can switch the creation mode to **Manual**.
When **Manual** mode is enabled, clicking **Create** opens the **Soap Asset Creator** popup with pre-filled values. You can adjust the asset name, tag, and destination folder before the asset is created.
If you use a dedicated folder for all Soap Scriptable Objects, you can also set the **Create Path Mode** to **Manual** in the settings. This ensures the correct destination folder is already selected when the Soap Asset Creator opens.
