3D Can't edit type.

I'm going through a Lynda Photoshop tutorial and I'm on the video about 3D text. I'm supposed to edit type by using the text tool and right clicking on the text. But the option to edit type is grayed out.

Here's the steps that I've done.

1. I highlighted a text layer.
2. I go to the 3D menu and choose "New 3D extrusion from selected layer."
3. I use the move tool to click on the text so the 3D mesh is selected.
4. I choose the text tool and right click on the text.

Now I'm supposed to chose "edit type." Problem is it's grayed out.

Anyone know what's going on here?

what version of photoshop are you using...

I know with CC they introduced this feature in the 3d layer panel make sure your text layer is selected then in the properties tab you can select edit source which will let you change the text
