Saving FX Chain Preset in X3 not working.

Right clicking in the blank space in the effects bin to save an FX chain preset is currently not working.
 
When i right click, SAVE FX CHAIN PRESET is greyed and cannot be completed.
 
Fix anyone? Is anyone else having this problem? Cheers.

    If a project is playing you cannot save FX chain. Also you cannot save a prochannel preset during playback. Same goes for adding region fx (melodyne)
    Stop the project in the control bar (or spacebar) and try again.
    This worked for me.

    Cheers for the suggestion DJpremacy, but i wouldn't ever try to save any setting whilst in playback and expect it to work.
     
    Playback is off, i'm right clicking in the clear space in the fx bin below the effects, have tried on multiple tracks within the project, and on a new project, have also tried in the track view, and console view but strangely the only track the Save option is enabled on is the Master track. I am forced to save track templates at the moment, which isn't what i wanted to do, i need my FX chain presets, but is the only way round it I can see. More suggestions welcome.

    Try dragging the Fx on a particular track to the Pro Channel.
     
    This should automatically create a Chain which can be saved & used elsewhere
