Can't modify subset settings in layout book

I have a teamwork project, signed in as Team Leader with Exclusive Access and I can't modify subset settings of any of the layouts in the book. When I open the settings dialog the OK is greyed out no matter what I do. Is there a way this could have been locked somehow? As an update I can change the settings of new subsets created but not alter already created ones.

If this problem does not solve, then here is a workaround:

1. Save it as PLN.
2. Make desired changes.
3. Re-share it as Teamwork Project.

I just ran into this too .... just teamworked our first AC10 file, am signed in with exclusive access and cannot change ANY subset settings.

I can however delete those subsets although I cannot edit their settings ...

If I create a new subset (drag-copy) I can edit the new subsets settings ONCE. If I go back to edit them again its all locked ....

So for the moment I have a workaround .. if i want to change a subsets settings I duplicate the existing one, change its settings and delete the old one. The new one is locked so if i want to change anything else I do it all over again.

Seriously what the hell is going on here. I ran into this problem within 5 minutes of teamworking and it's making me slightly worried about what other little surprises AC10 Teamwork has in store for me (with deadline due in 1 week).
cheers,

I've been doing the same, duplicate, make changes, delete original. This is a very big bug in my opinion, especialloy when you need to make changes across several subsets of a large project. Granted most of these settings are preset in our office template but sometimes things need to be changed, moved whatever, usually at the last minute and this just causes everything to come to a grinding halt. Bad, very, very bad.
