About applicability of Action Tab
The Actions tab contains settings to specify the behavior of the control in Read-write and Read-only modes. PRPC 7.1.9 has applicability as Editable, Read Only and Both. Would you please illustrate it from a use case perspective when it is appropriate to use?

The question is when or for what purpos we select 'editable', or 'read only' or 'both'.

Lets say we have scenario like this,
- When the text input is displayed as editable, then on tab out we have to do refresh section
- When the same text input is rendered as read only, on hover we have to display some smart info / smart text
This can be accomplished by configuring two sets of actions one for editable mode and other for read only mode. Does the answer your question ?
I think the below description may help you to understand the appropriate use-cases.
