Locking a Layer...
I went to lock a Layer (the whole layer) and could not - I had to Lock the item IN the Layer (one item: and the Layer still did show as Locked).I have a screen shot; but, it's been a bit & I don't see how-to attach it.Plus, shouldn't I have been able to Lock the Layer & the item in it? Is this a Bug? Thanks

Re: Locking a Layer...
Make sure the layer isn't selected
You must have the pointer at another layer,
Now you can lock the layer you want in the gallery

Re: Locking a Layer...
As Hans says, you probably have current layer always visible & editable. Change this here:
Utilities/Options/General/Genral Options/Current layer always visible & editable
and see if that fixes your problem.

Re: Locking a Layer...
Hans, you are right, I have to make sure the layer is not selected.
Egg, I made the change; but, still have to make sure the layer is not selected.
Seems like that should not be; but, hey, what do I know (after Exporting Error)!
Still blushing :o, Tom

Re: Locking a Layer...
to be honest I found this a bit strange - I seem to recall a possible intermittent problem with selecting layers, but not this - just checked and I can lock a selected layer in XDPX and XPGD9[trial]
EDIT: as long as it is set the way Egg mentioned
