does the Editor license allow to modify the editor

Hi,

re-reading the Editor license again, I am not sure that I am allowed to modify the Editor sources. The license does not say anything about modifications, so I am wondering if that is allowed.

Hi,

Yes, you can modify the source code to suit your needs, but you cannot redistribute the modified (or unmodified) code.

Out of interest, what changes are you looking to make? I've tried to keep Editor modular, so hopefully you will find the changes easy to make, but it might make future upgrades a little more difficult :-)

Regards,
Allan

Thanks, I am aware of the distribution restrictions and yes, you are very right, both DataTables and Editor are indeed extremely flexible.

My concern is due to this question:

I have implemented a workaround for this issue, but after reviewing the license I was not sure if I am allowed to actually make the changes directly in the Editor sources.

Got it - thanks for the clarification. Good to know you are looking for something I am working on for a future version :-)
