[SOLVED] How to make file read only and stay?

I'm using gnome 3 and want to make the recently used.xbel file (in .local/share) read-only/locked. I've tried making it read only and it just reverts to normal when something tries to write to it. How do I do this?

How to make files read only

ElMagoElGato,
I am glad to give some help but I am still confused because we are having different experiences. I have been able to lock Tables on my mac and have that lock respected in iOS for a long while now. Easy to unlock, impossible to relock. With the most recent upgrade I can lock tables after tapping the upper left dot to select the whole table and going to "arrange" in the paintbrush.
When you say worksheet are you meaning the entire file? When you say file lock are you meaning password protection? You can see I am confused.
quinn
Based on what ElMagoElGato has described, password protecting would be of no value to him. Once the file is accessed, it is in edit mode. Unless I'm really missing something.
Files I have imported from Mac iworks apps with elements locked stay locked for me in iOS. Not sure what the problem is.

OA Framework,how to make field Read-Only which is used inside Switch case

Hi all,
Using Personalization in OA Framework, when I am trying to make field read only, which is inside Swich statement ,then that field get automatically hidden.but my purpose is to make that field read-only not hide.
My field name is Proposed Annual Increase Amount .
The Personalization swtich case lookslike this :-
Field Name Shown
Switcher: Proposed Annual Increase Amount Yes
case_name_HrPRateAnnTotInputSs
Message Text Input: New Annual Amount Yes
case_name_HrPRateAnnInputSs
Message Text Input: Annual Pay Rate Yes
case_name_HrPRateCurrAnnSalSs
Message Styled Text: Pay Rate
Regards,
Mxj2930

Can you be a bit clear on your requirement. If you have a switcher to display a field based on some condition, the other fields will not get displayed. I did not get as to what you mean by "my purpose is to make that field read-only not hide.".
Are you talking about the case, when the "New Annual Amount" (or) "Annual Pay Rate" fields are displayed conditionally, you want them to be read-only and not editable. If this is the case, set the read-only property of these fields to true.

How to make JTextArea read only

I want to make JTextArea read only so that you can only append text at design time and not at run time and so the user can not delete text in the text area.

You can use the setEditable(boolean) method. I think that it's the best way.

How to make fields read only after form is filled in

I am creating forms to be used within our company. The customer srv representative (CSR) would fill in the form and send it to the customer for signature and initial. There are a few issues I can't solve.
1) I need to make the rate & services fields read only after the CSR initials the form

Will the CSR have Acrobat or just Reader, and what type of computer will the CSR be using (Windows/Mac/mobile OS)? If just Reader (Wind/Mac), this is possible by setting the fields to read-only with JavaScript. The problem is this can't be considered secure, even if using a password as discussed here: Password-protect and hide one form field
With Acrobat you have the ability to flatten certain fields, which makes it a bit more difficult to change the "fields".

How to make form read only

hello
is it possible, and if so how, to set a form to read only. i will have 2 oracle responsibilitys. 1 group will enter the data and save it . the other will only be able to view the form as read only.
any ideas is helpful
thanks
james

This can done using SPEL , Make a VO with transient attribute with boolean Type.
For one responsibilty set this attribute value to true where you want readOnly behaviour.
code should be like that
OAViewObjectImpl pVO = YourPVO();
OAViewRowImpl pVORow = (OAViewRowImpl)pVO.first();
If(Check for responsibilty)
pVORow.setAttribute("IsEditMode", Boolean.TRUE);
On page level set spel for disable/Readonly property for item for them you need show as readonly
like
${oa.YourPVO.IsEditMode}
Hope it will help you.
Thanks

Interactive Form - How to make fields read-only through the code?

Simple question but i can't seem to figure out how to do it. I have an interactive form that have editable fields. How do I toggle fields to make some of them read-only through the code. Please provide cold sample. thanks a lot.

<b>Nagarajan Kumarappan:</b>
I know how to do that but that's setting the value at design time. Mine has to be done at runtime(when the page loads) because there are a lot of condidtions determining which fields should be and should not be readonly. therefore I have to do in the code. Any by saying code I mean Java not java script or formcal.
<b>kushagra mittal:</b>
are you talking about regular webdynpro input fields? I am asking for that. I am talking about input fields inside my adobe interactive form embedded on the webdynpro page.
I think what needs to be done is to disable context attributes like Nagarajan Kumarappan suggested but do that through Java which I don't see any tutorials show that.
still looking for help.

How to make fields read-only

While I may allow a customer to see their billing address, I don't want them to change it. How can I make certain fields read-only?

Hi Thomas,
If you are using 2007, find the ~/common/controls/accountaddressblock.ascx and make the templatefields that hold the delete button and the edit button invisible.
<asp:TemplateField Visible="false">
You will probably also want to make the add button invisible.
If you are on 5.9, this may not work. I think the address block is also used in the admin area.

PowerPoint Makes File Read-only After Saving

Hello all,
A couple of end users have encountered the above problem. They make changes to pptx files and after the file saves, the file becomes read only (says so on the program window). If they are not paying attention, then any other changes they make to the file
need to be saved to another file, which needless to say, is very annoying.
They have saved the file, file becomes read-only, then if they close the file and open it back up, it's fine; they can edit and save.
It happens sporadic. Could it be an autosave happening at the same time? Any others experiencing this?
Any help would be appreciated!
JB

How to make vtable read only

Hi ,
I have a problem where our tests are panicing due to a corrupted
vtable. The corresponding object is always the same and the corruption
pattern is also the same. It is not reproducible on demand and the
complexity of the code makes it difficult to debug using usual methods.
I was wondering if there was someway to force the vtable of the
offending object to be readonly and thus catch the culprit in the
act. Some investigation makes me think it won't be as easy as
editing the elf section and moving the whole vtbl into .rodata. The
vtbl has to be written to once (?).
Is there any way this can be accomplished with compiler/linker flags
or directives?
cheers
Binu

If you can find the address of the vtable, you can use mprotect() from within your code to mark that memory read-only. But that's a pretty big hammer, as it will mark the entire page of memory read-only, which probably encompasses a lot more than just your problematic vtable.
You're better off running under a real memory-checking product.

How to make Inputfield read-only dynamically?

Hello Experts,
I used an input-field which the user can enter values through F4 help. After user selection, I want the input field to be read-only.
And again if user wishes to change the value by F4 help, the input-field should be editable. Can we achieve this.
Actually by using dropdown I can achieve this. But is it possible in WD4A as I stated above?
Regards,
Yugesh A.

Hi,
Is this SH a custom one. Or you getting values from the DOMAIN.In this case, MODIFYVIEW gets triggerd. Also can make use of context change log.
Or
It can be possible when you have a OVS or custom SH so that an event has attached to it whcih gets triggered.
