    Hi,

    setting the default opening mode to read-only is a very clever way to
    avoid doing accidental changes. This is the default mode in my setup.
    This means that I have to actively set the view editable, which so far
    is only via menu Design->make editable.

    I modified the XXToccleSnapSpacing.il provided here and added a new
    bindkey to my .cdsinit file:

    XXToggleEditMode.il:
    procedure( XXToggleEditMode( wnd )
    if( equal wnd~>cellView~>mode "r" )
    ;; then
    schHiChangeEditMode( "a" )
    ;; else
    schHiChangeEditMode( "r" )))

    ..cdsinit:
    load( "~/work/skill/XXToggleEditMode.il" )
    hiSetBindKey( "Schematics" "<Key>1"
    "XXToggleEditMode(hiGetCurrentWindow()")

    Forgot to show how to set open read-only double-click in library manager:

    In .cdsenv file:
    cdsLibManager.main dblClickEditCellView boolean nil
