ABSTRACT:
Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for multipoint temporary anchoring are described. One embodiment includes a method having the steps of receiving a first input signal associated with a first area of an object within a graphical workspace, automatically determining that the first input signal is a locking signal, selecting the first area of the object based at least in part on the first input signal, and automatically locking the first area of the object.
