Hi, Ed.
Yes, but only if the property is not read-only. For derived features,
this dialog is not opened, and derived multi-line values can therefore
not be displayed.

Philipp,
So you want read-only cell editors for read-only properties to act like
viewers. That's certainly possible but contributions rather than a
growing list of feature requests would sure go a long way towards
dealing with such issues.

I somehow agree with you.
But for multi-line values, they can just not be shown as it is now.
Could it be useful to add a feature request, that read-only cells can
span multiple lines in the properties view?
You would then have multi-line for read and write. The read option could
display multi line text, and lists of values by one value per line.

Philipp,
What happens now? I thought we displayed them with like "\n" in them.
The properties view isn't flexible enough to allow on property to span
multiple lines. They'd have to be multiple different (but related)
properties and that's too tricky...

I understand. A pitty.
