Managing Components and Children Editability

You can select a requirement, a function component or a logical component, with its first level children and switch them between edition or read-only modes.

Before you begin:

From Me > Preferences > App Preferences > Social and Collaborative > Global Design Management > Collaborative Lifecycle > Content Access tab, select Authorize the edition of read-only content with a warning. For more information, see : Content Access.

If this option is not selected, none of the Read-Only/Editability commands will be available.
