Value range

edit_locking

The entry into the edittext is taken over into the tablefield only after Return has been pressed. Any further selection in the tablefield is not allowed while an element is being edited until the Return key has been pressed. The locking is effective on the first change of the contents in the edittext. By using the Escape key the locking is deactivated without any change to the tablefield contents.

edit_offline

The entry into the edittext is used in the tablefield only after the edittext has been deselected. The tablefield will not be locked, however. If another field is selected in the tablefield, the edittext is deselected.

edit_online

Any entry into the edittext is immediately displayed in the associated tablefield element.
