    Hello fellow creators,

    Am I mistaken? It seems I used to be able to add a protection tag to a mesh, and it would become un-selectable in the viewport making life easy when selecting rig splines... Please guide me in the direction to achieve this.

    Thanks everybody!

      Hi tone-dust,

      The Protection Tag allows for selection but prevents position, rotation and scale changes or limits those.

      My suggestion would be to place the object on a Layer and lock the Layer.

      All the best

      Cheers

        This is 100x better than the protection tag - if it ever worked how I remember?
