Locking Figures

A Locked Figure is one that cannot be moved or resized until it has been unlocked. Attributes such as stroke, fill, shadow, etc… can still be manipulated on a locked figure. A minimum of one figure must be selected in order for this option to be enabled. To lock a figure(s):

1. Select the figure(s) to be locked.

   

2. Press on the Selection Button to open the Selection Menu.

   

3. Press on the Lock option. The Unlock Option will only appear in the Selection Menu if a set of already locked figures has been selected.

   

4. The Grouped Figures will appear as below.

   

Use the Function Key Feature to select multiple figures for locking.

This Selection Menu option is only enabled when an unlocked figure or group of figures has been selected within the drawing canvas.

A group of figures will appear as shown below when they are unlocked.

The group will appear as shown below once they have been locked.

The handles appear gray after a figure(s) or group of figures are locked. This handle attribute change serves as a visual indicator of the selected figure(s) being locked.
