A unique region identifier of the specified region. You can obtain this identifier using the GetRegionID method or when creating regions using AddRegion(String,Int32,Int32,Int32,Int32,ForegroundMixMode,Int32) or AddRegionInches(String,Single,Single,Single,Single,ForegroundMixMode,Int32) methods.
Set this parameter to true if you want to allow users to edit the specified region, otherwise set it to false.

SetRegionEditable Method (GdViewer)

In This Topic
Specifies if users can edit a highlighted region specified by its unique identifier related to the document currently displayed in the GdViewer control. These regions, if present, determines the currently defined highlighted regions on the displayed document.

All newly added regions are editable by default. You can change this behaviour for all regions at once by setting the RegionsAreEditable property.

You can also benefit from using several events related to highlighted regions like RegionEditedByUser, RegionMovedByUser , RegionResizedByUser and RegionSelectedByUser.

Parameters

RegionID
A unique region identifier of the specified region. You can obtain this identifier using the GetRegionID method or when creating regions using AddRegion(String,Int32,Int32,Int32,Int32,ForegroundMixMode,Int32) or AddRegionInches(String,Single,Single,Single,Single,ForegroundMixMode,Int32) methods.
Editable
Set this parameter to true if you want to allow users to edit the specified region, otherwise set it to false.

Return Value

A member of the GdPictureStatus enumeration. If the method has been successfully followed, then the return value is GdPictureStatus.OK. We strongly recommend always checking this status first.
Remarks
Be aware that if the required region does not exist, the method will fail.

Just to inform you, that all newly added regions are editable by default. You are allowed to change this behaviour for all regions at once by setting the RegionsAreEditable property.
