Locking and Unlocking Objects
You can lock objects using commands on the Object menu so that changes to default settings, such as the font setting or object position, do not affect the locked objects.
You might also want to lock objects so that you do not inadvertently change them while working on other objects. You can lock an individual object or multiple objects.
