Lock a layer?

Must be smoking too much crack, but i can't seem to find a lock layer button in Combustion, so i don't accidentaly move a layer. Does one even exsist?

Hi,

There is no actual option to lock a layer.

What I do is just turn the layer off and then I cannot select it in the viewport...

Wow !!! really, i was hoping i had missed it somewhere, but i guess they didn't even put it in the program. Its such a simple stupid thing not to have in Combustion.

The possibility to lock layers in combustion has been around since at least version 1.011 of the software. The User's Guide talks about locking layers. Tutorial 11 also has the user lock a layer.

To lock a layer:
1. In the Workspace panel, select the layer.
2. In the Composite Controls panel, click the Layers controls.
3. Under Options, enable Lock Orientation.

Cheers!

That option is only available in 3D mode. Doesn't do much help, in 2D mode.
