Locking or Unlocking Guidelines and Building Grids

Why can't I move or delete my guidelines or building grids?


Answer:

If you cannot move or delete guidelines or building grids, the “Lock All Guideline Objects” or “Lock All Building Grids” feature may be activated.

To check this setting:

Option 1: Using the Navigator – Data

  • In the Navigator – Data, open the “Guideline Objects” entry.
  • Select Guidelines or Building Grids.
  • Check whether “Lock Guidelines” or “Lock Building Grids” is enabled, and unlock them.

Or

Option 2: Using the shortcut menu

  • Right-click in an empty area of the work window.
  • In the shortcut menu, check whether “Lock All Guidelines” or “Lock All Building Grids” is enabled.
  • If the lock is active, click “Unlock All Guidelines” or “Unlock All Building Grids.”

Afterward, the guidelines or building grids can be shifted or deleted as usual.
