Toggle Edit Only or full Elementor Experience

[taropaa]

Prerequisites

• I have searched for similar features requests in both open and closed tickets and cannot find a duplicate.
• The feature is still missing in the latest stable version of Elementor ( Elementor Pro )

What problem is your feature request going to solve? Please describe.

Hi,

It would be useful to allow any user with full access to Elementor to toggle between the full elementor experience and the "Edit only" Mode as made available by the elementor role manager feature.
**This is not the same as the functionality offered by the Role Manager **

Describe the solution you'd like

Perhaps an additional button to switch between the "Page Builder Experience" and "Inline Editing" Inline editing would work exactly as if a user with a role set to "Edit only" were to be editing the page.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Webflow does this quite well.
They have two options:

• Designer (meant for the designer working on the site)
• Editor (meant for the user)

As an admin I can access both.
The client can also access both.
There is a role that can be set to restrict access to the designer.

Additional context

For example:

• A client may want access to switch to edit mode only if they want to change text, but they may need to duplicate a section or build a popup, for which they may want to use the full editor experience.
• even for me as a power user, I'd like this feature. Every so often I find myself editing content in-line, and accidentally dragging an element across the screen. Having the ability to just edit the content would also save me in page load times as I don't have to load the full editor experience, and would prevent me from typing a long paragraph then trying to select a word just to find that I accidentally screwed up the entire design, hit CTRL+Z and have to rewrite that paragraph.
