To Lock or Not to Lock (Balloons That Is)

Tuesday, July 26th, 2011

When creating a New Revision (under TDP), you can choose to Lock down the balloons so renumbering is not possible and a deletion does not renumber. Under BoC you can see any retired (deleted) balloons.

Sounds too drastic? No problem, just don’t select the checkbox next to Lock Balloons on the New Revision page. Balloons are not locked down so you can change the number and delete to renumber.
