Would agree assuming most work is done in one session and since users who need to edit the design are rather able to switch into this mode than users who enter data into the final design. Ideally we decouple edit and design modes. Documents should be read-only (use case is when many documents are open but only one is to modify), with the simple on/off switch (see <a class="bz_bug_link bz_status_NEW " title="NEW - STATUSBAR: Easy access to change to read only mode" href="show_bug.cgi?id=86303">bug 86303</a> for a recent discussion to bring this into the statusbar). The design mode can be on/off when editing is enabled. If edit is off, neither design nor input is possible. Today the two functions are somehow related, as stated by Linonel, and edit on switches the design mode.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
