Locking a dropdown column?

We have a dropdown column containing a specific set of options. We don’t want users adding their own options to this set.
I locked the column using the “Restrict column edit” option, thinking it would lock the dropdown list so new items couldn’t be added.

Instead, it seems to make that column itself unusable by anyone else on the team.

I guess that kind of makes sense, but still I want to lock only the dropdown options. How can I do this?

Hello @tjb :wave: !

This should work for you.

The issue is that this is non-specific with regard to the columns, and there are other columns with dropdowns that we do want to allow our users to add items to on the fly.
