Thanks Mark - it does seem the easiest solution, although the other suggestions
were very interesting: in fact I wonder why your solution wasn't the first one
to come up. AFAICS you can't refer to the cantselect of an object from the
Object Inspector in the IDE, which is perhaps why I missed it.
Set the cantSelect of the group to true.

Can you just use something simple like...
on mouseDown
if the optionKey is "down" then
grab me
end if
end mouseDown
putting this in, or allowing access to a 'simple' 'grab me' routine in the
object that you wish to move ...

I guess this is another very naive question, but the answer is not easy to find
in the LC documentation.
If I allow the user of a Windows desktop app access to the pointer tool so that
he/she can move objects around, select them etc, how do I protect the menu
group at the top of the window? I m
Probably the closest is to use a behavior. Set up a menu somewhere in your
stack that includes all the scripts to handle its usage. Then set the
behavior of of each of your menus to the ID of that button
