Back 1) For click & drag. The parameter marking mechanism in XSI works on selected objects so if your DisplayInfo is under the scene root you need to select the scene root for this to work. For DisplayInfo properties attached to 3D objects it works better because selecting the object causes the custom parameters to be displayed and the scrubbing works properly because the object is selected. (We really should make a temporary selection when the object is not selected so this could be viewed as a bug/omission on our part)
2) The name displayed is the same one shown in the property page but there is an option to display the name of the proxy parameter. (i.e. light_light_soft_light_intensity) Go into Shift+S -> Stats -> Custom Info and check "Use Proxy Parameter Names".
Hope this helps. -- Brent

I'm setting up DisplayInfo parameter set so that I can view the parameters in the actual 3D window. According to the manual, I should be able to click and drag on the parameter name to slide the values. However, I can't seem to get this to work. All I can do from the DisplayInfo view is click on the actual value and change it by entering a numerical value.
Also, can I change the parameters' name in the DisplayInfo?!?! Or at the very least, show the entire parameter name like in the actual set itself? For instance, say I want to add a light's intensity to the DisplayInfo. In the set itself, the parameter name is "light_light_soft_light_intensity" but in the 3D window the name is just "intensity." Obviously, this will cause confusion if I want to add more than one light to the set. Ideally, however, I'd like to make my own custom names. -adam
