In this demo, editors display values but do not allow users to change them. To implement this behavior, you can use any of the following modes:

  • Read-only mode. In this mode, you can use the keyboard to focus and navigate the component. Set the ReadOnly property to true to activate this mode.
  • Disabled mode. In this mode, the component cannot be focused or navigated. Set the Enabled property to false to activate this mode.
