    Hello,
    Sorry, I am sure that this is quite a basic question.
    I am working on a project with a couple of audio tracks and another two video tracks. One of the audio tracks and one of the video tracks are done and no further changes are necessary. How can I lock those tracks temporarily so no longer changes can be made? I don’t know if the work “lock” is correct. Maybe “protect” would work too. One way or the other, I need to keep these tracks away from further changes. Also, is there a way to open them later on if more changes are necessary? Probably there is a way.
    Thanks a lot!!!

    Jorge

    There is no way to place a lock at the track level. You can only lock an event. Ultimate S Pro and Excalibur can automate this process for you by locking all of the events on a track with one click. Otherwise you have to do this manually, Right-click | Properties | Lock one event at a time.

    Thanks for your reply, John.
    I just tested it and it works very well, but not being able to lock a whole track is not the best way to work.
    Oh well… thanks again!
