The procedure locking feature can be used to protect procedures from accidental changes by non-admin users, while retaining the ability to adjust exposed parameters.

This feature is suitable for the following scenarios:

  • Standard module reuse: After R&D encapsulates and locks a complex process, it can be delivered to engineers for use.

  • Intellectual property protection: Hide implementation details when delivering projects externally.

  • Project maintenance: Regular engineers can complete debugging by adjusting parameters only, reducing the risk of misoperations.

Prerequisites

Operation Guide

Lock Procedures

  1. In the project editing area, right-click the procedure to protect.

  2. In the shortcut menu, select Lock Procedure (Administrator).

After locking, the procedure enters protected status.

  • Non-admin users cannot enter the procedure to view or modify logic. They can only use and adjust exposed parameters.

  • A locked procedure can be copied to other projects (including projects in other solutions), and it remains locked after being copied.

  • In locked status, editing procedure display parameters, saving the procedure to a file, and splitting the procedure are not supported.

Unlock a Procedure

  1. Right-click the locked procedure.

  2. In the shortcut menu, select Unlock Procedure(Administrator).

After unlocking, the procedure returns to editable status.
