    Question Display Missing "Layer-Locked-Icon" on Screen

    Hi. Hope you all can help ...

    Just having an odd problem ...

    Normally when a layer is locked, you hover your cursor over the
    locked layer on screen you will be able to see a small [Lock Pad]
    kinda icon ...

    But recently mine doesn't ... I tried looking through the HELP and
    search online for similar cases, but no avail ...

    { Please refer to the attach image for explanation ... }

    If any of you might have similar problem and know the solution ...

    Please help ... Many Thanks ...


    * Btw ... I'm using AutoCAD 2012 ...

    I think you have to have a command active to see the little lock icon.

    Hi ... I tried commands : "Move". "Erase", "Copy" and etc ... but the [Lock Pad] Icon still not appearing when the cursor hover over the Locked Layers ...

    Anyone else has similar experience and know what to do to recover back that [Lock Pad] icon ???

    Not on my system at least... running LT 2012 here and the padlock icon shows up anytime the cursor is moved over an object on that layer. No command was active.
