Entity locking in PCBNEW
Are there any plans to add a lock feature for board entities in PCBNEW. ("locked" checkbox in properties or right click & choose "lock"), so the entity cant be moved or changed until unlocked.
I sometimes have accidentally moved a track or line when doing a block operation.
Would it be difficult to implement, Sure would be useful.
eg I draw a set of thin lines on the board X & Y (aka Guidelines), the intersects are my mechanical reference (For LED's, switches, mounting holes etc...) & by locking these lines & XY value text, I can't accidentally move them during board layout.
It is immediately evident also if I have a component that is not aligned to these guides & I know the guidelines are where they should be.
cheers
