Re: gEDA-user: Purpose of locking

[Tamas Szabo <sza2king@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Yes, my idea was absolutely the same. I put all the parts which never 
will be moved, then I locked those. However if I lock a component, 
'Crosshair snaps to pins and pads' become unusable. Using thermal also 
not works...

Is it normal behavior? If yes, why?
