Navigation among objects using the First/Previous/Next/Last buttons takes into account read-only conditions of the objects. If using the buttons results in a currently locked object (e.g. because it is opened by another user) being displayed, the editor switches to the read-only mode. Navigating to other objects changes the editor mode correspondingly.

Note: Pressing 'Enter' in most of the fields in the Editor starts the default action (e.g. Save). The default action can be set in Authorization Manager.
