This is nice, however a password will be better if others could be able to view the drawing but unable to edit it. I think there might be a solution to it.

When I open a password protected file, first time it asks for password and I open the file. When I clse the file and reopen it, it doesn’t ask for password. I think this is a negative point for this kind of protection. What could be the reason for such a odd behavior?
