It would be nice if the StandardForm had some kind of a boolean property to always stay in edit mode. Now after Save, the form always returns in ReadOnly mode until you press (or call) Edit again. Being the form in ReadOnly mode looks strange to our customers, since they have used forms to be editable. So we always have to call Save and Edit together. This sometimes messes with the focus of controls and we have to write the same code all over again in all our forms.

It would be nice if this was an option.

Thanks

You can also set the BO property ManageReadonlyState to false versus each of the bound controls, but if you only want to keep one or two controls in edit mode, then you could use the IgnoreManageReadonlyState property of the control.

In our medical software the fields are always enabled and we use the IsDIrtyChanged event of the BO to enadle or show the Save/Undo buttons.
