Ah, thatâs a good point. So something like a book, sort of like Readability.
Yep, something like a book or a lamp that indicates âreadingâ would work. Thanks!
Update: this is implemented, waiting to be released. Woohoo!
I see itâs released. Thanks a bunch: This was my single biggest annoyance and itâs fixed.
Just leaving a minor note here: The only thing left to do is to remove the menu thatâs accessible via pressing and holding a bullet (from all modes), which is accessible in read only mode.
This may be an issue if oneâs phoneâs lagging and then someone ends up tapping on something they regret by accident. So please keep this in mind if your phone lags at times and youâre using Dynalist. Fortunately the expand all appears to be the option that youâre most likely to click.
Thanks for the note!
Hi Erica,
Awesome on Mobile so far.
Can this also be done for macOS and Windows to only scroll no formatting only option to check off or move an item or node to another place. Still see the Image or files.
Cheers
Dimitry
That would be nice.
Do you think you would toggle this setting on desktop very often? (Iâm trying to think where we should put it: hidden in the main menu or along with the search and eye icon?)
I think this an option i used very often, please Put beside the search and eye Icon
Cheers
Dimitry
Is this feature going to be implemented? I love to have it implemented on the desktop/web version because I work on multiple screens.
I do not want to accidentally edit my note in Dynalist!
Hey team, I also have just realised how useful this could be. There are documents that I certainly donât need to risk editing once theyâre done
- As a developer, I often have code snippets saved in my dynalist. With a âread onlyâ mode I imagine Iâd be able to copy the text âas isâ (I know that this functionality probably overlaps with the WYSIWIG feature).
this feature is marked as âimplementedâ, but how do we access it?
I expected read only to be an option on the âget linkâ screen. like google docs does
Itâs only available on mobile via the âopen bookâ button
If youâre sharing a link, then itâs read-only by default. That window seems to be the one that a user sees after uploading a file. Right-click a document on the documents pane and then click on âmanage sharingâ
whatâs âopen bookâ ? i canât find it
ah. no, my screenshot was of the âget linkâ screen when sharing an item. didnât realize that sharing on the document level was already implemented.
My bad. I donât use the mobile app as often as the desktop app and forgot that the book was changed into a lock:
Alright, let me know if you have any questions.
This read-only mode for a node is useful, to avoid accidental edit when a node is already finalised. Please implement it for browser users.
