Identify Who Has Locked An Object
When you are working in your model, you might find that you are unable to update an element, diagram or Package. If you cannot update any object, this might mean that you do not have the access permissions to update diagrams or elements. However, if the object in the Browser window has a red exclamation mark next to it this indicates that either another person has placed a user lock or group lock on the object, or you or another user have put a full lock on the object.
You can quickly establish if the lock is a full lock (which you can remove) or which user has set a user or group lock.
