I hope someone can help me!

I was animating with Blender 2.8. Then, as I always do during animating I made all objects, such as the cloth or the skin and so on (except the rig) unselectable, to not click them accidentally all the time. In the builds of Blender 2.8 before the UI freeze, there were buttons in the outliner to do this, but now they are gone. I found an option in the object tab under the point visibility where I can make an object selectable or not, but hitting this button has no effect at all.

The objects are selectable in the outliner though and if do so I can go into edit mode as well. The problem is that I'm not able to select them in the viewport! Another thing is that all the objects in my rig are gray, as if they were not to use.

Thanks for your help in advance!

Reset to default

In case anyone else comes across this, the selectability toggle is now filtered by default. What I mean by that is in the top right corner of the Outliner you'll see a filter icon: Blender 2.8 Filters Button in Outliner

Opening it will provide you with the various toggles and options for objects in the outliner. There you can enable the selectability toggle:

Blender 2.8 Filters

That should be all, hope this helps whoever comes by!

Upper answer : big clue.

Or if fails : select back Show Overlays(2 intersecting circles of 3D viewport Right-Bottom hand side)
