    Locking DFP buttons using password object

    Hi all,

    I was wondering if it would be possible to lock out all the DFP buttons using the password object so that they can only be accessed/ used if the correct password is entered? Alternatively have the buttons disabled unless you press and hold say 2 or more buttons together?

    Basically my son's cot is not too far from the DFP and he's got to a height where he can reach the no.7 and no.1 buttons which as you can imagine it can lead to his bedroom gets rather toasty because he's upped the temperature. I could change the button assignments but i think being able to lock the DFP via password will come in handy later on when he get's too clever for his own good

    Thanks,
    Nad

      Good idea Chris, I think that could work as a quick short term solution but I don't see it working for too long as he'll figure out that he needs to hold the button down for longer for something to happen or alternatively bash it repeatedly till something happens.
