<h5 id="C1_LiveLinq_LiveViews_ViewRowCollection_AllowEdit_remarks">Remarks</h5>
<div class="markdown level1 remarks"><p>As any other update operation performed directly on the
view (as opposed to on the base data collection on which that view depends,
see <a class="xref" href="C1.LiveLinq.LiveViewExtensions.AsUpdatable.html#C1_LiveLinq_LiveViewExtensions_AsUpdatable__1_C1_LiveLinq_LiveViews_View___0__">AsUpdatable&lt;T&gt;(View&lt;T&gt;)</a>), it is allowed only if the view
is not read-only (see <a class="xref" href="C1.LiveLinq.LiveViews.View.IsReadOnly.html#C1_LiveLinq_LiveViews_View_IsReadOnly">IsReadOnly</a>).</p>
<p>Although read-only properties of a view cannot be modified directly in the view,
they still reflect up-to-date values of the source,
so the difference is often not critical, you can always modify corresponding property in the source, that
will automatically change the property in the view.</p>
