unselectable
Grayed out option
Unselectable describes something that cannot be chosen or highlighted.
In computing, unselectable text or interface elements resist user interaction—you can't click them, highlight them, or copy them: The grayed-out menu options were unselectable.
Outside computing, unselectable describes candidates or options that can't realistically be chosen: His past made him unselectable for the position.
