Can you edit source segments in Trados Live?

Question

If don't care if the source text is being manipulated, I just want to go into the source segment to correct a typo or make a word bold. Can that be done? 
 Can I set up my document/project to allow source editing? 
 In Editor there is a feature called Edit Source (Alt+F2). I click on it, the selected segment turns light blue, but I can't do anything to the source text.

 You can correct a typo but you cannot apply formatting. You should not need to do anything to make this possible other than press Alt+F2 (same as for Studio). The only criteria is you can edit the document. So if you have accepted the file and can make changes to the target, then you should also be able to make changes to the source. 
 What browser are you using? Have you tried a different browser?

 In Studio you'll find it here: 
 
 Also in the right-click menu here: 
 
 If this is greyed it's because the editing of source is disabled by default. To enable it you do this in the your Project Settings here:

Trados Enterprise, Accelerate, Team and cloud capabilities in Trados Studio > 2. Trados Enterprise, Accelerate, Team & cloud capabilities in Studio
