3.5.1 Model builder View tab missing lock element buttons

[DuncanHornby]

Can anyone from ESRI explain why the lock elements on the model builder view tab in 3.5.1 have been removed? One has to now create a new tab on the ribbon and add the buttons when they were perfectly ok where they were...

Hello @DuncanHornby , yes they do seem to be missing, despite the ArcGIS Pro 3.5 Help still describing them.

"click the Lock Element or Unlock Element button under the View group on the ModelBuilder tab"

This could be a Bug. Let me check.

Note, the documentation for Model diagram appearance was updated for this change, but the Model Builder vocabulary will be updated soon.
