Locking Diagram Elements
You can disable in-place editing of element attributes and operations in the Diagram editor by using an editing lock on the diagram element.
When you double-click a locked diagram element that exists in more than one diagram, the Element Navigation dialog box displays.
- Using an editing lock on a diagram element does not prevent you from selecting the element and typing a new name for that element.
To set or remove an editing lock on a diagram element:
- In the Diagram editor, select a diagram element and right-click.
- On the pop-up menu, select Edit > Lock Edit.
If the diagram element was unlocked, the IDE sets the editing lock.
If the diagram element was locked, the IDE removes the lock.
