Lock Work Plane (make it unselectable)

When I set up a Work Plane, I want to make it locked, so that I dont accidentally select it and highlighting it blue.
The Work Plane is very useful as a reference to snap walls to with modular buildings, but it's annoying when you click on it, sometimes accidentally moving the plane, it also slows down the performance.

Either pin it and uncheck “select pinned elements”

And/or uncheck select by face

Thank you, the disabled select by face' option works for now. However, I don't find a way to pin the work plane, even typing 'PN' gives me that error sound. Can you really pin work planes?

@Kreeshnee_OreeF5AXH  You did not specify. It depends on the plane you are working with. If it is a reference plane select and pin it, if it is a face of an object, select the object and pin it, if it is a level, pin that, it’s pretty much straight forward.

 

Nonetheless, if select by face worked for you, then the problem is solved? Or not?
