Yes, me again, with something I assume is mindlessly simple!

I downloaded an SVG from Pixabay. It's the silhouette of an angelshark, but not the right species for my purpose. I want to edit it to match the species I want.

I can in no way get it to let me edit anything! Even if I merely try to resize the critter, I end up resizing its frame.
 

The structure looks like this:

Nothing, according to this listing, is locked.

What do I do to edit it?

Thank you!

I guess it´s a path clipped image or masked. Try Object->Clip->Release Clip or ->Mask->Release Mask. Otherwise upload or link/to the file.

Looks like that is probably it! I am entirely self-taught with Inkscape, and I am completely ignorant of clips.

It also looks like I'll need to get on to the fine points. Just removing all the clips destroys the image!

Thanks much, @Polygon!
