    See "Apply Blend modes" in this article. Copying from the article here

    You cannot apply different blend modes to different graphic symbols because multiple graphic symbols are merged as a single shape when you publish the SWF file

    I assume you're in a Canvas document. They're greyed out because those blend modes, while defined in the Canvas specification, are not yet widely supported in browsers. So Animate disables access to them.
