Hi Creators,

Due to customer feedback  we’ve improved how “locking” works for layers. Previously, when you locked an object, customers could not unlock the object which caused usability issues when they wanted to make changes. With the new update, both you and your customers can unlock a locked layer.  To maintain the original locking functionality, we’ve added a new toggle called “Disable User Interactions” which is located in the “More options” section in the right-hand panel. When enabled, it prevents users from interacting with the layer, and they cannot change this setting.

We recommend using layer locking only when necessary, as it is an advanced feature that most customers may not easily understand and can lead to usability issues. Many of the use cases for locking a layer can be solved by using features like frames & grids, opacity, or filters.

We hope this update makes it easier to balance design control with customer usability. Feel free to let us know any feedback on this functionality in the comments below. 

Thanks, 

Zazzle Team
