Hello everybody! Daniel closed the bug report for lack of use cases.
Here is our use case: We have a huge qx.ui.form.Form and renderers based on qx.ui.form.renderer.AbstractRenderer with a lot of radiobuttons and checkboxes. The resulting rendered form widget is used (via model, controller et.al.) to retreive the form content from the backend which works perfect. Based on the access rights of the current user the form is in a editable or a readonly state so we would like to use the same form for viewing data without allowing the user to change the contents or states of the form fields. It would be a tremendous work to create another form widget for viewing the data readonly eg. by replacing radiobuttons and checkboxes by simple images because we have then to implement another stack for getting the data from the backend to the readonly form widget. Please consider the implementation of readonly buttons.
