« on: March 16, 2023, 03:09:17 am »
If someone is in the process of editing a diagram or an element, will EA stop anyone else from editing it?

No. Only when trying to save it will croak that eventually someone else was faster. Happens even when you are solo on a EAP (at least that happened to me often).

Enable the Security feature, and then enable the Require User Lock to Edit mode. Under this mode, users must lock targets to edit and others cannot edit them during the user lock.

Thanks for all the responses.  Had hoped that it implemented locking as a standard feature much like many other CASE tools I have used in the past.
