Fix tokens on map

I want to show unpassable things on a map in a way that they lay above the grid. Because i dont see a possibility on the map layer to do this, i would have to add these objects on the token layer. is there a possibility to make these objects even as a dm unmovable, or even better unselectable? or is there a totally different solution for the problem?

There are a couple API scripts that would probably do what you want but the API requires a pro subscription for the game creator.

You could upload or use a map that has a pre-printed grid, and change the grid to full transparency. You'd need to match the printed grid to the built-in grid, but it's not a big deal if you're off by a few pixels. Any item you laid on top of that in the map layer would obscure the grid, but tokens will still snap to it.
thx both of you @keithcurtis this is a very interesting idea, i will try it out.
