merge segments option greys out in trados2017 and trados2019

am not talking about merging across paragraphs. In fact, I cannot merge any segments, neither in trados 2017 nor trados2019

all the pics below are shot from trados2019

I have checked "allowing source editing" in the wizard.

Trados Studio 'Create a New Project' window with 'Allow source editing' checked and 'Enable merging segments across paragraphs' unchecked.

I tried both right click on the source text and on the source line number. merge option is always greyed out.

Trados Studio editor with right-click context menu open, showing 'Merge Segments' option greyed out and not selectable.

Close-up of Trados Studio editor context menu with 'Merge Segments' option greyed out, indicating it cannot be selected.

Note that these two sentences are in the same paragraph in the source.

Text excerpt explaining that 'Enable merging segments across paragraphs' option does not exist and 'Disable merging segments across paragraphs' must be unchecked to merge.

I have searched through the community. But no thread really solves my problem. Thanks in advance for any help
