Read only mode

You can set AlloyEditor to "read only" mode. In read only mode, you can not edit content and links navigate to their URL instead of opening a dialog for editing them.

Passing "readOnly" configuration property to the editor

Read only mode can be set by passing the readOnly property to the editor with the value true:

var editor = AlloyEditor.editable('editable', {
	readOnly: true
});

This behavior can be changed any time by setting the nativeEditor's read only property to false:

var nativeEditor = editor.get('nativeEditor');
nativeEditor.setReadOnly(false);

This makes the content editable again.
