Field

Description
Edit Options Select an edit mode for this control. The edit mode of the control takes precedence over section and harness settings.
  • Auto — the control uses the edit mode of the section or harness in which it appears. If the section is set to Read Only, then the control is Read Only. If the section is set to Auto, then the control uses the edit mode of the harness. For example, a New harness is editable, while a Review harness is read only.
  • Read Only (always) — the property value is presented in read-only mode always, even when the enclosing layout is in read-write mode.
  • Read Only (expression) — the property value is presented in read-only mode using a simple expression based on the comparison of a pair of constants, properties, or both, combined by Boolean operators, such as .Color="Red". You can combine the expression with a when condition rule or another expression using the && and || operators.

    • As a best practice, use the Condition Builder to edit this field. Click to open the tool. See Using the Condition Builder to configure dynamic UI actions.

  • Read Only (when rule) — the property value is presented in read-only mode based on a when condition rule or client-side test, even when the enclosing layout is in read-write mode. Enter or select the When Name key part of a when condition rule. Click the icon (magnifying glass) to review or create the rule.
  • Editable — the control is editable, regardless of the edit mode of the enclosing layout.

Select the Show toolbar in Read Only mode check box to show the Rich Text Editor toolbar when Rich Text Editor is in read-only mode.
