      Here's a problem that I never came across before...

      I choose a color and want to edit it but the entire tab is greyed out. I can't change anything. This is true for all materials.

      Any idea why it is being uncooperative??

          That doesn't really solve the problem. That icon is the Create New Material button. Yes, it does bring up the edit material box, but I do not want to create a new material. I want to edit the one already in my model.

          This never was a problem until today. I don't know why it has changed.

              Ok, I see what's happening. I cannot edit the library of materials. That's the way it should be.

              I am able to edit any materials that are used in the model, which is also the way it should be.

              All is well!

              Thanks.
