Disable a layer

When I import a set I put it on the bottom layer.
But it is still active and moves around if I make a wrong click.
Command/Z puts it back but I would simply like to disable that layer
from being chosen all of the time. Is that possible?

You can only select the current layer unless you have specifically enabled another layer to make its objects selectable when it is not current. Selectability is controlled by a checkbox in the layers table next to the visibility checkbox. If you create a new layer above your imported graphic and make it the current layer, you won't accidentally select and move the graphic. In LXFree for Java, making a new layer is done with the popup button under the layers table in the Inspector's document tab.
