Edit Mode :Auto option is by default read only (Constellation 25.1.2)

I hv a embedded property of page definition of Data class, i have 4 columns out of which 2 are read only and other are editable. The embedded property is defined as editable and 2 read only properties are marked as read only by default where as other 2 properties which need to editable marked as Auto since we don’t have edit only option. But these 2 fields are also defaulted to read only when i see from work object, how to make these fields are editable?

Setting a field to Auto does not force it to be editable. It follows the mode of the containing view. So if the embedded row is being shown in a read-only/details context, the Auto fields will also appear read-only.

To make only selected fields editable, configure the embedded table with Allow edit and open the row through an Edit modal/view. Put the two editable properties in the Edit view and keep the other two read-only there. If the entire row/view is read-only, the Auto fields will never become editable

If you’re looking for default couple of read only, couple of fields editable on the embedded page, then you can add the disable condition for the read only fields to be Always that will help to default the fields to read only and other fields will be editable as per your requirement.
