Lock and reset routes

Protect manually chosen geometry or request regenerated routes for selected connections.

Use

Locked in an edge's Inspector marks its route as locked. When the selection offers route actions, Lock routes applies locking to the relevant selected routes and Reset routes rebuilds route geometry. Use these when a manual drawing arrangement needs protection or when an old route should be replaced.

Caveats

Locking is about route geometry; it does not lock device metadata, prevent every endpoint change, or freeze the whole project. Resetting is not a way to change endpoint connectivity. Check the route after moving devices, ports, or flags, and use Undo to review an unwanted result. See [ Edit a connection route ], [ Move and resize drawing objects ], and [ Undo, redo, and branches ].
