Preventing changes to encyclopedia data
Prevent changes to your data. Open your definition or diagram in read-only mode. Any diagram or definition opened in this mode cannot be altered. The Read Only option is off by default.
With or without a list of diagrams or definitions in the Docking Explorer’s listing area, right‑click in the listing area, and then click Read Only.
Note When Read Only is active, “READ ONLY” appears in the title bar of each window or dialog containing a diagram or definition opened in this mode.
