While any of the shortcuts is being pressed the overview will be frozen to prevent items from shuffling around based on the sorting order. While the overview is frozen all new items that appear on the overview will be added at the bottom of the list, and items that disappear from the grid will be shown in a faded text. <br>

The locked status is shown by a padlock symbol in the columb that is used for sorting.

== Tagging ==

The Tag feature allows you to assign a number or letter to individual ships or objects in space which will be visible in the Tag column of the overview. Tagging is different from [[Fleet]] broadcasts though they are often used for similar purposes.

The tag will remain assigned to the object until it is destroyed, you dock in a station, or enter a jump gate. This is useful for marking trigger ships during missions, marking trigger ships and kill order in wormhole sleeper sites, prioritizing PvP targets, marking NPC convoy ships for attack (see [http://www.eve-wiki.net/index.php?title=Guide:Attacking_Convoys EVE Wiki Attacking Convoys Guide] for more details), or any other activity for which you may need to quickly identify specific objects for a fleet. Only fleet members in a command positions can mark tags.

=== Tagging Process ===

The Tag option is only available while you are a member of a fleet, and in a command role (i.e. FC, WC, or SC). If you are alone, you may simply form a fleet with yourself (your default role with be FC).

To tag an object, simply right-click, select "Tag" from the context menu, and you will be given a choice of numbers or letters. Pick the number or letter you wish to use and you are done.

A faster method to tag targets is to use "tag item as" shortcut key. Note that all "tag item as" actions do not have key bound to them by default. Tese shortcuts are in the "combat" section of shortcut settings.
