ReadOnly property for all controls

Hello Roberto,
Is it possible to add ReadOnly property for all controls, including Grid and Combobox (many controls already had it) in the next version of HMG? And this property should be changed at run time
Thanks in advance.
With best regards.

Are you tried 'Enabled' property?

Yes Roberto, I am using 'Enabled' property. But, 'Enabled' property has some visibility problem (Eg., Enabled property with Textbox and Readonly property of Textbox). Users cant see the contents of the control clearly when using 'Enabled' property .f.. Moreover, for grid controls, users can't browse the grid. To make a grid readonly, I am using a special technique, but IMHO, it will be better if we have 'Readonly' property for all controls, which can be changed at runtime.
With best regards.

Windows API does not have native support for 'readonly' for all controls.
This is the reason because it does not exists for all HMG controls.
