rll Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 Instead of locking layers by selecting layer and clicking the lock button above, just put a lock pad button on every layer. adi_cataleya and buschbrand 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pšenda Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 -1. Since most layers are unlocked (and without fx), it is better to leave more space for the description and name of the layer. Only when the layer is locked (or with fx) does the corresponding symbol need to be displayed.

fde101 Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 The lock command is also in the context menu for the layer and has a keyboard shortcut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl123 Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 i.e. right-click the layer and select Lock Quote To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum.

Or maybe it's just adobe cobwebs in my way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P. S. I can imagine that it would be optionaly, but not by default as you require.
