Sink - can't delete or alter

KeesW

AC24 won't allow me to delete, or alter, this sink. Also, the bottom R button is greyed out and y changes made to the sink cannot be saved and used. Why?

That looks like a Cadimage sink.
I don't use Cadimage objects, but I believe you may need a subscription license to use their parts.
Otherwise you can see them but not adjust them.

Given the grey corner nodes, I would say that your layer is locked.

CI Essentials Sink, so it's part of the AU/NZ subscription.

Yes that would be it.
I just loaded the CI Essentials library and the sink works fine - unless it or the layer is locked.

You could also have accidentally locked the object itself.
