I wasn’t aware of that, but that may be correct.

‘Newbie’ here …  
Question: above discusiion seems to indicate that there is the ability to “hide and lock” a group at the same time.  
I’ve not been able to figure that out … I can hide a group or I can lock a group, but I cannot find a way to “hide and lock” a group.  
Do I have that right or am I missing something?

Are you refering to this:

I think it is meant to be read as:

The

‘Hide or **UNHide** ’

And

‘Lock or Unlock’

is under Edit
