locking

[rstrot]

Is there a simple way to lock everything on a page?? How about how to unlock everything on a page??

Well, you could do a "select" all, make it a group and lock that group down.

Just an idea!

You can just group then right click and lock. There's no need to group.

David and Lisa are correct: select everything you want locked, then right click on any object and choose lock from the edit menu.
Unfortunately there is no easy way (in 3.7) to unlock everything. You have to right click on each individual object and choose unlock from the edit menu.
Don't stress too much, locking and unlocking everything is much simpler in Inspire.

But if you group the objects and then lock it (the group), there's only one thing to unlock (and then ungroup), right?

Not sure...

After my previously muddled post, you can just select all the objects then right click, edit and lock without having to group.

But i think Lisa is right, if you group the objects after selecting and then lock, you can just unlock the group if you need to.

With my version you should be able to unlock each individually. To unlock them all you'd have to select all first.

I haven't tested this as I've just got a new computer (a mac{}) and i haven't had time to put version 3 on yet.

You had given me some light for ActivInspire.[clap]
