Topic: locking model in place

[M3.0]

I have placed a model on a flat terrain and started building a bank of a soon to be river... when I dig, the model keeps moving down as I dig.  I have gone to the context menu and have "locked" the model, but it keeps moving down.  I think I am approaching this the wrong way.  How do you do this?  Basically my site is sloped.  The roadway is at 0 and the river is about 27 feet down.

Hi M3.0

You are using the correct method, Context Menu --> Transformation --> Lock Position --> Lock.

If it is moving down then it might not be locked, please check that the object icon you are selecting is for the required model, and then the Lock Position is On.

For terrain, that's also preferred, to lower the terrain so rest of areas start with the base terrain at 0 height
