Locked Extrusion - unable do decouple from reference plane

Hi,

I sometimes have problem in family editor: extrusion is locked to a reference plane (it's start and end) and I am unable to unlock it - either by changing values of the extrusion, by dragging of it's handles or by finding the lock icon. It can be solved by deleting unrelated geometry - like some other extrusion or even detail lines. I make sure the extrusion is locked to reference planes, not other geometry. See attached video, it's hard to describe by text. Does anyone have an idea for the reason of this behavior? 

See video here:

Oh sure. Here it is. It is the top shelf - you can see it in video.

Reveal Constraints > select the purple reference planes constraining the extrusion and unlock their pad locks.  Then you will have no problems stretching the extrusion.

@ToanDN Thanks, this solves the problem. I just don't understand the behavior of the extrusion. I guess I have to take it as one of Revit's mysterious constraints behavior.
