Viewing and Editor Modes of Views and Panels
In QPR UI, a view may be seen in two modes: viewing mode and editor mode. When in editor mode, the panels and presentation objects can only be moved and resized. Interacting with presentation objects (e.g. clicking buttons) is possible when the viewing mode is used. In addition, a view can be either in locked or unlocked state.
- Viewing mode is in use when:
- Administrators group has been configured to QPR UI and a viewer role user opens the view, because user doesn't have permissions to edit the view.
- The opened view is locked, because locked views cannot be edited.
- The opened view is unlocked, but the view has been toggled into viewing mode by clicking the Edit button on the main toolbar:
800px
- Editor mode is in use when:
- Administrators group has been configured to QPR UI and an administrator role user opens an unlocked view that is also been set into editor mode by clicking the Edit button on the main toolbar:
800px - Administrators group has not been configured (i.e. all users are administrators), and the opened view is unlocked and the view been toggled into editor mode by clicking the Edit button on the main toolbar.
- Administrators group has been configured to QPR UI and an administrator role user opens an unlocked view that is also been set into editor mode by clicking the Edit button on the main toolbar:
The Edit button is available also in unlocked panels for toggling the viewing/editor mode in the panel editor.
