Houdini noob here. I imported a model to play around with organic tissue/solid object and all seemed to be going well. It created the proxy object from my original object and i wanted to edit the remesh to make it more detailed for my accurate sims.. (hope that makes sense)

However, when i click into the node > solidembed1 > remesh1 and all of the parameters are greyed out.. all of the nodes on this string are also greyed out..

I also cannot add any additional nodes or i get: Failed to modify node or parameter because of a permission error. Possible Causes include locked assets, takes, product permissions or user-specified permissions.

If i click show details, it reveals this: Traceback (most recent call last):
File “sop_clip”, line 5, in <module>
File “/Library/Frameworks/Houdini.framework/Versions/15.5.523/Resources/houdini/python2.7libs/toolutils.py”, line 1182, in new_func

“Failed to modify node or parameter because of a permission ”
Error: Failed to modify node or parameter because of a permission error. Possible causes include locked assets, takes, product permissions or user-specified permissions.


I've included screenshots as well: http://imgur.com/a/d0GbZ [imgur.com] (couldn't attach to post)

any ideas?

solidembed1 is an HDA - and it is locked.
you can RMB on the node and select Allow Editing of Contents.
