--- Comment #6 from Regina Henschel <rb.henschel@t-online.de> ---
I'm not against a "Lock all but this", but you need to be careful in defining
such command:
The Normal mode shows the default layers "Layout", "Controls", "Dimension
Lines". The Master mode shows the default layer "Background objects". (both
translated EN names as shown in UI)
A user defined layer is shown in Normal mode and Master mode as well,
independent where it was created. But objects, which are added to a user
defined layer in Normal mode are not visible in Master mode; and objects, which
are added in Master mode, are visible but not selectable in Normal mode. That
is not connected to layer status "Locked".
The layer "background" exists, but is never shown in the UI.
Measure lines are automatically inserted on layer "Dimension Lines". Locking
that layer makes it impossible to add a measure line.
Controls are automatically inserted on layer "Controls". Locking that layer
makes it impossible to add a control.
Groups can group objects from different layers. In that case the group itself
belongs to layer "Layout", but the group members remain on their layers. To be
able to select, move and resize the group, at least one layer of its members
needs to be unlocked, not the layer "Layout". To select the group, you need to
click a member, which is on a layer, which is not locked. The action then is
applied to the whole group independent whether the layer of a member is locked
or not.
The alternative, a command "Select all on current layer" in addition to command
"Select all", needs to be clear about treating groups too.
