...
The Activating the edit mode selected affects the actions you can perform in your Activeboards, and applies to all the Activeboards you work with in the current user session. That is to say, if you switch from view to activate the edit mode, the change is applied to all the Activeboards you access in that session, both your own Activeboards and the ones you've been given access.
By default, all Activeboards are in view mode have the edit mode deactivated when you first access them in a session. However, when you create a new Activeboard, the default edit mode is edit activated by default so that you can start working on it directly.
Users are allowed to perform different actions depending on upon activation of the edit mode selected:
View Edit mode | When you access an Activeboard in view-only mode, you OFF | You can only see the current widgets data .
