Hi I'm really enjoying PS Express but I can't seem to figure out how to lock a layer or prevent it from being selected & moved. It's making it very difficult to use without that feature, is it really missing?

Hi Sarah,

 

To lock a layer, do this:

  • Tap the three dots to open the menu for Layers
  • Tap "Lock" in the menu

Hi, can you also lock a audio-track? I've synchronised my video and audio layers, but as soon as I change something in my sequence, I have to redo the work.
