When people collaborate in a mural, they may accidentally edit, move, or displace items. Whether you’re collaborating in someone else’s mural and don’t want to make changes or would like to prevent others from doing so, MURAL offers special techniques to prevent this from happening.
Tip: Accidentally moved something around and freaking out? No worries! You can just click the undo button at the top of the mural right next to the title or with Control + Z (Command + Z on a Mac).

Drag around the canvas to locate the particular area you like to display.
Click the hand icon to turn off Move Mode or press the Escape key to switch back to editing mode.

Lock objects
If you don’t want collaborators to accidentally move things, you can lock objects on your mural in place. This means that collaborators will not be able to touch these objects unless they are unlocked.
To lock an object on a mural:
Right-click on an item and select Lock.
Choose Any member can unlock to allow any member of the same mural to unlock the item.
Or, choose Only Facilitators can unlock to allow only the Facilitators of the same mural to unlock the item.
Note: Locked items cannot be moved by you or any collaborator until they are unlocked unless using inclusive selection shortcut. |
To lock all objects on a mural:
Click on an empty space in the canvas. Press Control + A (Command + A on Mac) to select all items on a mural.
Click the drop-down button beside the Lock icon on the toolbar to choose a Lock type. Here you can select between normal Lock and Facilitator lock.
Or, click the Lock icon on the toolbar to lock all objects with the most recent Lock type selected.
