Hi Ryan,
When you create a design you can save it in your personal folder and you can modify this design as you please.
Now when you create a lesson based on this design LAMS automatically makes a copy of your original design and stores the copy in the My Groups Folder > {Course Name} > {Course Name}'s Run Sequences folder.
As that design is being use for this course, then it is "Read-only".
There's no other way thru the LAMS interface to set a sequence to be Read-only. However, in the lams_learning_design table in the database there's a column for read-only. So you can set read-only sequences in the database.
Thanks,
Ernie
