Dear Xara...
I appreciate the mechanism whereby I can right-click and Object and pick Lock.
The converse, necessarily, cannot be done as the Object is now Locked and cannot be Selected.
Right-click Unlock all on page is far too crude a response as it impacts each and every Object on any Layer, locked or hidden.
I would have set these up for a reason and now I would be faced with re-applying the locks all over again.
The Mouse selection Alt+Left Button+Click could be used as a temporary Unlock.
Currently, we hold down "Alt" to select objects hidden by other Objects; Alt+clicking steps through several overlapping Objects.
Can the capability be extended to allow a Locked Object to be part of this action. When it loses focus (selection), the Lock is re-applied?
