Help Document

Diagnosis

The required element occupies a position in its container that cannot be made visible, even by scrolling. This is because another element is already selected. Since all further processing steps require the selected element to be visible, the element cannot be selected.

System Response

The element cannot be selected.

Procedure

Edit the elements in the container one after the other, and ensure that the next element you want to edit is always in the visible part of the container.
