Hello Scott,
Currently Inventor does not allow locking LODs, however we have this on our radar for a
future release.
One recommendation is to build Design Views that represent your LODs, and lock them. You
can then use the command "Copy to LOD" to build them. A manual step, yes, but it allows
you to build the LODs relatively quickly.

I am creating a large assembly that will contain many level of details. When I complete a
"section" of components, I create a LOD for just that section (all other components
suppressed). However, all the components I add after that LOD has been created are added
to that LOD. I would like all additional components to be automatically suppressed, unless
I have that LOD active. Is there any way to do this?
Without this ability, I have to activate each previous LOD one at a time and suppress all
new components. This can be quite time consuming. Any ideas? Thanks!
Scott
