Thanks Paul. Bugs and feature requests can be submitted here [1] which will ensure they are seen by the entire team/community. The most helpful reports include screenshots when applicable, current system description, and potential use cases or unit tests to verify issue resolution.
Very quickly, you can accomplish a “non-edit mode” by assigning “ROLE_MONITOR” to a user in the authorized-users.xml configuration file, but currently a feature whereby a single user can switch back and forth between those two modes instantaneously does not exist. Can you describe the use case where you see this being valuable? Are you having trouble and accidentally modifying items on the canvas?
