Double-clicking a group enters into Isolation mode, where only objects within the

group without ungrouping the objects on the main artboard. Other elements outside the
group are dimmed and visible, but you can’t access or edit them.

Remember, you created a group from the icon artwork, and then grouped that with
the background shape. Because there are two levels of grouping, you have to enter into
Isolation mode for second (nested) group to access the individual paths that make up
the actual icon artwork.
