Able to edit fields in the Lock asset by another user?

[kranthik9932873]

Hi team,

I have locked the asset by user A, and when i opened the asset by User B i am able to edit some fields like dropdown,rte field and fields inside the fieldset though i can't save it as save is disabled. How can i disable dropdown,rte field and fields inside the fieldset.

Thanks

Kranthi

If user a locks an asset, other users cannot modify it.

Yes for the locked asset another user cannot edit the fields, but as per our requirement we have created custom metadata fields using a dialogfieldset xtype, so the fields inside the dialogfieldset are editable by the another user.How can i avoid this to happen?

You would have to use this api

http://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/cq/5-6/widgets-api/index.html?class=CQ.form.DialogFieldSet

and create custom app logic to make fields in this xtype read only for those users.
