Can't adjust accessories as needed.  In Composer Mode, after linking a prop to a bone of a character I can not scale, rotate, or position it.  It will transform but as soon as I let go of the mouse button it snaps back to it's original location and form.  I was following the instruction manual here https://manual.reallusion.com/Cartoon-Animator/Content/Resources/ENU/08_Animation/Attaching_Accessories_to_a_Character.htm and also the video tutorial here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CRfRcusWiFw which both show adjusting the accessory after attaching it to the bone.  Does this work for anyone else?  I have CTA version 5.21.2202.1

I will answer my question as I stumbled across it while doing something else.  Neither the video I linked or the documentation show that in order to transform the accessory you have to first switch to the Transform Sprite mode.  Enter Transform Sprite mode by clicking on the icon circled in the attached pic.  The default mode seems to be the Transform Part (arrow icon) which will not allow you to make changes to the accessory.https://forum.reallusion.com/uploads/images/42c74828-a611-4b6a-8972-013d.jpg
