Is it possible to jump to an element that’s locked?

If not, it would be a good feature request.

Far out. Just discovered that holding down the **cmd key** allows direct selection of an element. Constant double clicking was driving me crazy. I must have studiously avoided that tip everywhere.

Quick test: can’t jump to anything inside a locked element’s hierarchy.

Link to the guide for anyone who wants to know, you just need to schroll down the page a bit. - [here](https://help.penpot.app/user-guide/layer-basics/#select-layers)

I suppose for the time being I could just select the element using the structure panel.
