Project lock

The «Lock project» mode sets a ban on the selection for objects contained on the report map, which includes report design elements (frames, inserts, additional design elements).

After creating and customizing the project of the report its preparation for use is carried out. It consists in setting restrictions on the display and selection of objects contained on auxiliary maps. This allows you to conveniently carry out information requests, solve computational problems and the usual editing of the information background map included in the project. Objects located on design and auxiliary maps, when working with a ready project, are not included into the list of objects found at the cursor point when clicking on the map. As a result, the search and enumeration of objects on information maps is carried out faster.

In a case when into the project of the report during its creation and customization the additional user maps have been added, you should, if necessary, set for them the «Edit», «Copy» and «Select object» properties («Properties» in the «List of data» dialog) and resave the project (File\Save).

In the case when the background map included in the project is itself an MPT project, you should open this project separately, customize the visibility and access to the maps included in it, and resave the project.

If you need to make additional changes into the design of the report map, you must unlock the project.
