If it really bugs you, you can do this: 1) Create a hidden recursive link that links back to the same panel and record - so that if you go through the link you land on only the same record you started from.
2) Create your computed field with the data you're wanting to display conditionally. 3) Create a window for the hidden link created in step 1 above and select your computed field to be displayed through the link. Position and size the window directly over the field. Now when the user is in Browse mode, the window will display and will show the field contents in panel text color. However, when the user goes to Edit or Create mode, the window will disappear, leaving the field shown in panel field color. That's about the best you could do. Would I do this? Nah. It isn't worth the fiddling. Just educate your users.
