trying to edit a read-only layer activates editing on the uppermost editable layer
What is the bug or the crash? What were your expectations and what actually happened?
Hi, trying to edit a read-only layer activates editing on the uppermost editable layer. This is quite confusing and could lead to the input of incorrect data.

@andrea-bistacchi , could you make a screencast video of the steps you take here? What is happening isn't super clear to me bested on the provided description. Thanks.
Hi, I don't know how to make a video on the iPad while using QField. And I think the video will be too heavy to be loaded on GitHub.
Anyway the steps are the following:
On an iPad.
With a project with a mix of raster MBTiles, locked SHP, and editable SHP files.
You press the edit (pencil) tool with a non editable SHP selected.
A message pops up saying that it is not editable (ok, good).
BUT the first editable layer goes in editing, and this can lead to nasty errors if you do not immediately go back to browsing.
As I said in another issue, I was in the field so I did not give feedback on this for a while, but the issue is still open for me.
Thanks!
