Decided to start a new thread on this as it's come up in one form or another in a couple of other threads.
Is there some way to lock an object's position in the world after it has been positioned where you want it? I seem to always get most things in place and then move the ground, sky or some "placed" object and not notice until several steps later - usually when I play the world. I thought I had seen a way somewhere but can't find it.

that can get annoying it's pretty easy to accidently move the ground I wish I knew how to do that if I find a way I'll post it.

One option might be to set the objects vehicle to something you don't plan to move, whether it be a tree, the ground, or Fat Elvis. If you find another method please let me know.

I read this somewhere:
Select ground object
In it's propertie expand the Seldom Used categories
Set isFirstClass to False
The ground should not be able to be moved.

Thanks and thanks to MrNemo also. With the help from the two of you, my local gallery now includes a static bunny with his own event that loads automatically. Really nice.:D
Do you remember the reference? I'd like to find out what else is associated with "first class" objects. Think I saw it in the Herbert text but didn't find it with a quick look - will look harder later in the day.

I honestly don't remember where I saw or read it. I have a 3-ring binder where I write down any thing I come across which isn't in any of the books. [Edit] It has info that was shared on this forum, etc. Lately I've been searching for info on Alice via the deep web - supposedly much larger (500x) than the surface web that most crawlers can see.

What tools are you using to search the deep web? I've heard of it before, but have no idea how to use it.:confused:
