Setting Read Only Designs

Designs can be set as either Read Only or Full Access. Full Access is the default status of a design and allows you to modify the design. In Read Only mode, you may only run the design or link it to another design. Setting a design as Read Only protects it from accidental modification.

Read Only designs are marked with a red lock in the Project Manager:

Read Only and Full Access Designs

To change a single design's designation:

  1. In the Project Manager, right-click the design.
  2. Select either Convert to Read Only or Convert to Full Access.

To change the designation of every design in a project:

  1. In the Project Manager, right-click the project.
  2. Select either Convert All Designs to Read Only or Convert All Designs to Full Access.
Note: Read Only settings are not saved when you save the project file.
