By using conditional editability, you can change elements to be either?

The correct option focuses on the primary purpose of conditional editability within Mendix applications. Conditional editability allows developers to set rules that determine whether a particular UI element is editable or read-only based on certain conditions, such as user roles, status of data, or other business logic. This feature is essential in ensuring that users only have the ability to modify data when it is appropriate, thereby enforcing data integrity and adhering to the desired application flow.

In contrast, the other options represent different attributes or states of UI elements that do not specifically relate to the concept of conditional editability. For instance, while elements can indeed be made visible or hidden, this pertains to visibility rather than the editability of the element. Similarly, being active or inactive refers to an element's functionality or interaction capabilities but does not directly address whether a user can edit the content. Lastly, enabling or disabling elements also involves changing the usability of the element but not specifically its editability. The focus on editable or read-only directly aligns with the core functionality offered by conditional editability in Mendix.
