The animation below illustrates how to select and hold the left mouse button to select a locked asset and access the asset menu options.

When do I want to lock an asset?

I have listed some use cases below when it is convenient to lock an asset:

  • Lock an image to use it as a background. Then, you can layer other assets on top of the image.

  • Lock a container once it configured with the desired position and size. Then, you can easily snap other assets into the container.

  • Place a sticker, sticky note, or image in a desired position. Configure it with an "up-vote" button action, and then lock the asset so that it is relevant to other content in the board.

  • Lock any asset type when it is understood that the asset should not be easily selected or moved during a presentation or collaborative session.

  • Select asset.

  • Press the "..." menu.

  • Select lock button.
