will hide the item from the 3D view selection system. This script will alter the structure of a 3d object, camera or light to make it invisible to the selection widget. It only works with renderable items.
The script requires the persistent v3
Select a 3D object and press the button to lock it or unlock it. After locking a text object is created which has a button for unlocking the 3D object. The text will match the name of the locked item.
Will work with 3d members of groups but behavior a little odd.
Same technique used directly on a 2D group would crash tS, so is setup to only work with group members not groups.
Group behavior is the reason this is not a replacement for the widget based locking scripts.
Load this script and it will automatically change the colors of the axis lock buttons and the widgets to match standard color schemes for 3D applications (r,g,b) <=> (x,y,z).
