Lock PCB footprints entities

Arsalan1001

Hi, 
We use to receive PCB footprints from our part creation team but different entities (like route and via keep-out, lines on silk screen and designator) of footprint use to be not locked.

Is there a way to lock the footprint entities to avoid deletion of any entity of footprint?

Note: Please note my query is not related to position lock of footprint in PCB. It's about locking the footprint so any entity of footprint does not delete while we remove something else on layout. 

Thank You
