i found an issue with refrences. i was able to lock the refrence but was unable to unlock it after frame 0. it just locks/unlocks the previously selected layer

Apparently Moho 14 doesn't like how I was keeping from selecting a locked layer off frame zero. I've removed that from this version.

Thanks for the update, Wes!

Hi Wes, I have a weird padlock icon display issue with the Lock Layer script.

Previously I was using script v0.2 which works as expected with Moho v13.5.
I'm now using Moho V14.2 on Win10x64 and have a strange display issue with both v0.2 and v0.3 of the script.

When I lock a layer, the locking action locks/unlocks the layer as expected but the padlock icon briefly flashes in the layer name then just displays a hollow box (like a missing character) symbol.
Oddly, if I select the layer name in either the Layers panel or the Layer Settings panel, the padlock icon becomes visible as long as the name is selected, but vanishes again when deselected.

Am I missing a font or something?

Due to Moho 14.2 changing how it handles fonts, in order to expand its supported languages, symbols like the lock icon no longer work.
There is no way to "fix" this. I may at some point revert to adding "(LOCKED)" or "(X)" to the layer name, like I think I originally did.

As Wes indicated, this is due to current changes in Font handling within Moho 14.2. There may however be a tiny bit of light at the end of this tunnel - if you follow the steps here: viewtopic.php?p=219450#p219450. It involves swapping out the Font that Moho uses in 14.2, with an alternative that has better Unicode support. Note: Not advised if you/other need Korean language support.
