Hi, is there any way to set all the properties inside a specific category to read only mode based on another property value?

Hello,
That is certainly possible. The built-in property editors (as well as the Editors for WPF interop property editors) check the attached and inheirted PropertyGrid.IsReadOnly property. So what you can do is create an implicit Style for PropertyGridDataAccessorItem (which displays all items in the PropertyGrid), that binds the attached property to some value. The example below shows how to bind the attached property for a specific category, but you could modify to just use a Trigger so it's applied to all categories.Once you set the attached property, the editors inside the category should be read-only.

<Style TargetType="{x:Type propgrid:PropertyGridDataAccessorItem}">

<MultiTrigger.Conditions>
<Condition Property="DataAccessorType" Value="Category" />
<Condition Property="DisplayName" Value="MyCategoryName" />
</MultiTrigger.Conditions>
<Setter Property="propgrid:PropertyGrid.IsReadOnly" Value="{Binding ...}" />
</MultiTrigger>
</Style>
</propgrid:PropertyGrid.Resources>
