Changing BOFF outfits

Is anyone else having trouble changing the outfits on bridge officers? It seems that almost every time I try to create a new outfit a get a error message that says "You can not change the species of the character". I am getting so annoyed I could put a hole through my wall. Is there a place where I can submit a complaint to the development team?

The work around is to move the bridge officer to your active away team before you edit the uniform. It seems to fix this problem.
While trying to play around with the fancy new Klingon outfits, I notice even this work around doesn't seem to be working for any of my older Klingon characters' BoFFs
On a side note I have also noticed changes in the ship tailor recently in that u cant just slide the selector over things and get a preview of them. Like changing the ship material u used to be able to slide along the material selections and instantly see what the ship looks like, now u actually have to click on the material. Same goes for all the other selections in the ship tailor.
After you assign the Boff you want to edit (assuming it’s an editable one) to your away team, you MUST make a map change. For example, change all the boffs you wanna edit to your away team (ground), beam up to your ship, then beam back down... Sea Of Sorrows forgot this little tidbit part...
Try it and report back...

I never had to change maps.. but sure.. it's worth a try... thanks.
Actor holograms like Leeta, Bashir, the TOS crew are restricted, you're not allowed to mess with them.
Workaround:
Yea you can modify bridge officer if they moved to your active away team, then you have to logout so they shown on the login page with your Captain. Then you'll be able to modify them!
*sigh* Wish they'd get this fixed.
Tried it, still didn't work for my older Klingon characters
I think they tried to fix it but the fix did not work. So now they have to try again.
No it's not one of the actor ones, I got this one for free from my delta recruit by completing all their objectives, if they rerun that recruitment event again I'll make both Fed and KDF ones next time.
Ah, we do get people posting here wanting to change the actor holograms too, like giving them different era uniforms.
The KDF EMH can be customized just like any other Orion boff, at least when this bug doesn't stop you.
They did announce this as fixed, BUT all they actually fixed is that I noticed the fluttering of a single boff BUT the issue of chaing the non assignked boff uniforms is still glitchy.
in fact what I noticed was, when I changed an invalid boffs uniform it actually saved on the boff before it who was assigned to an away team as if they were linked and the actual boff never existed in the first place.
Yea that's one you can't, as the case with some Holograms. But funny you say that, I saw a Klingon EMH (the one you shouldn't be able to change) made to appear as Cardassian, and the Uniform was changed one time in the Voth Battlezone.
Yet they wouldn't say how they did it, and I can't modify mine, so I sadly disbanded the KDF EMH, since they didn't have a Space Trait like Bashir and they didn't allow me to at least chance her Uniform...
...I'd also LOVE to change the Uniform on the Fed Julian Subatoi Bashir EMH since white uniforms for Doctor's only really applied to Discovery not TNG, DS9, or Voyager.
Maybe they did, I haven't seen it recently but also haven't tried. It's also possible the person who started thread is on Console and slightly behind us, though it be nice if they fixed it for sure!
