Re: Set default to Open for Browse in Open member (CTL-Shft-A)

[Vernon Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have long wanted the option in preferences - I rarely use Alt-Shift-A 
to edit, mostly to bring something in for comparison without it being in 
the worklist (Turnover task object list) or going into RSE to find it.

I suspect that Aldon does put a read-only constraint on object at 
production level. I know that Turnover does, so if I'm in Turnover and 
have an object in my worklist, I can double-click the production level 
one and it will allow only reading - nice.

Because I mainly work out of an SCM, I find it a real bother to have to 
press Alt-F so that I get browse-only.

There is already an RFE for this -

- time to vote!
