Locking Layers

The Lock option is an “On/Off” toggle button for locking or unlocking a layer. It is located to the right of the visibility icon and indicates whether or not a layer is locked.

To lock (or unlock) a layer, Click on the lock icon of the layer to be toggled. A closed lock icon indicates that the layer is locked, and an open lock icon indicates a layer is unlocked.

The Layers Settings Menu provides additional options for locking or unlocking all layers residing within a drawing. To access these options, click on the Layers Settings Menu in the Sidebar and then choose Lock All Layers or Unlock All Layers from the provided drop-down menu.

All layers will be locked or unlocked within the currently open drawing depending on the chosen option. The “lock” icon serves as a visual indicator and will appear differently after a selection has been made, as shown in the screenshots below.
