Locking artwork
Locking an item in the Layers palette is equivalent to choosing the Lock command from the Object menu. You cannot select or edit artwork when it is locked. You can quickly lock multiple paths, groups, and sublayers by locking the parent layer.
To lock or unlock artwork: Do one of the following: - Click the edit column button (to the right of the eye icon) the Layers palette for the item you want to lock. Click the lock icon
to unlock the item. - Drag across multiple edit column buttons to lock multiple items.
- Double-click an item name in the Layers palette, or select an item and choose Options for "Layer name" from the Layers palette menu. In the Layer Options dialog box, select or deselect Lock, and click OK.
- To lock all unselected layers in the Layers palette, choose Lock Others from the Layers palette menu.
- To unlock all layers in the Layers palette, choose Unlock All Layers from the Layers palette menu.
