Freeze or lock faces

Is there a way to "lock" or "freeze" faces on geometry? I have accidentally moved faces I did not want to move on a model. Also I would like to lock down faces I dont want to change when direct modeling.

Hello!

 

The only feature I'm aware of that sounds close to this is the ability to make a  body selectable/unselectable. This feature is not available for individual faces.

It seems like you need to "lock" or "anchor" certain faces on the geometry. I'm not sure that making certain faces "unselectable" would be adequate for your needs since the faces still might move when editing adjacent "selectable" faces.

 

What do you think?

 

Ultimately, this sounds like it would be a good feature enhancement to add to the Fusion360 IdeaStation.

Thanks for the reply Nathan. I did find select/unselectable. As you said it only applies to bodies. I just wanted to make sure I haven't missed anything before I suggested a feature that already existed.
