Prevent objects from being accidentally moved, edited, or deleted by locking them on the board.


How to lock objects


Select an object and choose Lock on the context menu or just select the object and use the Ctrl + L (for Windows) or Cmd + L (for Mac) shortcut. Note that the shortcut does not work in certain browsers.



To unlock the object, use the shortcut again, or right-click the object and choose Unlock, or just long-press the button in the context menu.


⚠️ If you're not the board owner you can't unlock protected lock elements.




To unlock all elements on the board at once, click three dots on a locked object's context menu and select Unlock all or click the board with the right mouse button and choose the option. 



✏️ Protected lock elements won't be unlocked if you don't have the ability to unlock them.
