|  |  | Can't create obstacles or solutions.

While you can create new goals anytime, you'll find that Aspire will often dim the buttons for creating new obstacles or solutions. Remember that obstacles have to be attached to goals. Aspire needs to know which goal to attach the new obstacle to, or it can't do it. You indicate this by changing the selected item. If you have no items selected, Aspire doesn't know which goal to use, so won't allow you to create a new obstacle. If instead you've selected an existing goal, Aspire will attach the new obstacle there. If you have selected an obstacle or solution item, Aspire will attach the new obstacle to the corresponding goal. Solutions work the same way, except that they must be attached to an existing obstacle. So if no items are selected, or only a goal item, Aspire will not let you create a new solution item. If though you've selected an obstacle (or an existing solution of an obstacle), Aspire will then let you attach the new solution there.
