Hi Rob,

Yeah I do want to add in a lock/unlock method for objects, with also a way to do it in the browser as well (probably Ctrl+click on the eye area).

But I still have quite a bit of things to finish up just with the existing stuff though, if that runs on for a whole lot longer I may have to postpone locking until v3 but I am not sure about that quite yet.

It sounds like you already figured this out, but just to make sure - the "active style" is the one that will be used for newly drawn objects, it is the one that is displayed with an extra ring around the outside of the swatch.

You can set the active style by clicking on a swatch when there are no objects selected (when objects selected, it will set the selected objects to that style), or you can also right-click on the swatch.

Yup, that is something that I'd like to add in the future, but that one will definitely be sometime after v2 though.

Thanks for the feedback Rob!
