Freeze/Unfreeze
On the right, the trash can and streetlight are frozen.
You can freeze any selection of objects in your scene. By default, frozen objects,
whether wireframe or rendered, turn a dark gray. They remain on screen, but
can't be selected, and therefore can't be directly transformed or modified.
Freezing lets you protect objects from accidental editing and speeds up redraws.
Frozen objects are similar to hidden objects. Linked, instanced, and referenced
objects behave when frozen just as they would if unfrozen. Frozen lights and
cameras and any associated viewports continue to work as they normally do.
You can choose to have frozen objects retain their usual color or texture in
viewports. Use the Show Frozen In Gray toggle in the
Object Properties dialog
on page 245 .
