Dev mode: Keep locked layers locked


Nathalia_Xavier1

I have an element (it includes the top and left menus) on top of layers, and it is locked, so people can select the elements below it, while keeping the z-index correct.

However, it is not locked in dev mode, which is preventing developers from clicking the elements below it.

Is this by design? Shouldn’t the locked layers stay locked in dev mode?

Yes, there are some locked elements/layers intended just for background graphic,

I want to see the gap, padding of upper elements/layers but I’m not able to select the correct element/layer properly in Dev mode

Developers can use CTRL-Click to select layers underneath. But still, I’d like to have a means of preventing some layers to be selected in the inspector. Using the locking mechanism might not be the perfect solution for this, but maybe flag them as ‘not inspectable’.

I think this is not possible in the new Dev Mode anymore, is it? I have an overlay layer on top of some UI elements and no matter what, neither my developers nor I can select any items under that overlay layer when using Dev Mode.
