Issue/Introduction

When a blueprint rule prevents a project from creating/editing/deleting tasks, it should prevent you from altering the order of the tasks by drag and dropping them on the Tasks Timeline

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
  1. MUX > Administration > Blueprints
  2. Create a blueprint for the project object
  3. Create the following rule:
    • Target object: Project
    • Rule Type: Attribute update
    • Target Attribute: Project name
      • If Contains 'lock'
    • UI Actions:
      • Disable Adding Child Objects > Task
      • Disable Editing Child Objects > Task
      • Disable Deleting Child Objects > Task
  4. Publish the Blueprint
  5. Create a project in MUX called ABC md link it to the above blueprint.
  6. On the Tasks module create a few phases, tasks and add some dependencies between them
  7. Notice you are able to create, edit and even delete tasks
  8. Change the project name to ABC-lock 
  9. Go to the Tasks module.
  10. Notice that you can not create additional tasks, you can not edit/delete existing tasks
  11. Go to the timeline view and notice you can alter the tasks order or change them from one phase to another by drag and dropping tasks
Expected Results: You should not be able to reorder tasks (drag and drop) in the Tasks Timeline view
Actual results: You are able to reorder (drag and drop) tasks in the Tasks Timeline view
