Was that unlockable sticky in your screenshot created as a new sticky (from the content creation toolbar or using the N hotkey) or was it a duplicated one? Or created from a spreadsheet copy-and-paste? I’m curious as I would like to try to recreate it.

What happens if you move if over to a blank spot on the board and try it from there?

Something else to look out for is that as a Guest Editor, you cannot lock items:

I have additional options when viewing this board as a Guest Editor (board belongs to a  Consultant Plan team):

Thanks Robert. Ok so it looks like it can’t be locked when it’s inside the grid. So the sticky note is lockable outside the grid but as soon as I move it into the grid it can’t be locked anymore. 

If I add a new note from the toolbar/N hotkey or copy one, it is lockable when outside the grid. Both are no longer lockable inside the grid.

Thanks, I have those additional options under the extended menu (...) but not as icons as in your screenshot. 

@Lillie McEnteer -

I believe this has to do with the fact that the lockable one is NOT inside a grid cell. I don’t know if this is by design (or defect) but sticky notes within grids do appear to be un-lockable.

I want to say this is by design as the behavior is the same for shapes and cards.

As for my previous screenshots, I also noted that the options on the selected object’s context bar vary based on Navigation mode. In my above screenshot, I have duplicate and Delete when my navigation mode is set to Touchscreen, but the are not present when I am in Mouse mode.

Presumably this is because the Ctrl + D or Alt + drag to duplicate wouldn’t be an option if you were in pure touchscreen mode, i.e., no keyboard.

Thanks @Kiron Bondale and @Robert Johnson for the quick replies!

Hi there,

At the moment it is impossible to lock objects within grids/tables. You can upvote the existing Wish List idea - Lock objects within a grid / table.

Hi @Marina , Do you have an estimate for this functionality to be implemented? (Post it can be blocked within the tables).

For this I am using a work around. 1.) I lock the grid. 2.) I group the sticky notes an move them to a free space. 3.) Unlock the grid and move it to a free space. 4.) Move the grouped sticky notes in position and lock(!) them. 5.) Move the grid over(!) them and lock the grid.
You may use send to back/ front if needed. It is a bit complicated, but it works for me.
