"LOCK" option objects on map layer.

I'm sure everyone that has designed a map using roll20 has gotten to that point where they were aligning an object on the top layer of the background, then just as you were turning an object for the final touches, you find that your mouse is just a millimeter off and you end up grabbing the background or some other object and throwing it off completely. What I would love to see fix this is the ability to "lock" an object. So that any accidental mis-clicks doesn't disturb the work you have already done. I could even see making the object unclickable unless you are holding "x key." Especially when it comes to large objects such as trees or houses that you are trying to design detailed grass around the base of.

Here are some options to deal with selecting and moving the wrong thing: Ctrl+Z to undo any accidental movement Move the object to another layer and then move it back after moving it around. Move the object that is in the way to another layer and then move it back after moving other objects around. Use "To Front" and "To Back" for easier selections. Select an object and then use the arrow keys to align it rather than the mouse. Arrow keys are for gross movement while Alt+arrow keys is for single pixel movement.

You can lock things down using an api script. But we don't have access to keystrokes in the API so it would be more of a select the objects you want to lock down, the script runs, now they are locked down until you unlock them. Or something like that. Could be a good option in an objects settings though.

I logged into the forums just to post this suggestion, but I see that it has already been made! The way I would see it working, you would right click, > Advanced > Lock Position You would still be able to select an object and change any other attributes, it just would prevent you from moving it accidentally. Once locked, the context menu would change to right click > Advanced > Unlock Position Thanks!
