I am not sure what do you mean... how about this "No Buttons" option?

the users can read the main form, access the table records, can´t update fields (because they are into aprotected section), but the SAVE button remains.

Thanks

then you can use action.setVisible(false)

This should work:

var actionButtons = form.getStageActions();
for (var i = 0; i < actionButtons.length; i++) {
    if (get(actionButtons, i).getId() === 'S_MySaveBtn')
        get(actionButtons, i).setVisible(false);
}

hi, it seems you can't use 

var actions = form.getStageActions();

within the table's events, only on form's events.

Thanks

Maybe you could address the Save button in the table by simply hiding it via CSS?
I know that this is not a secure way, but better than nothing...

You could use Jan’s code to hide the button via the form’s “onShowActionButtons” event.

If you want/need to have the form submittable for certain user’s, you could then implement an own button anywhere on your form; this button can be addressed and thus be shown/hidden easily based on any condition you want to code, and in the button’s onClick event, click the hidden form action button via this code:

//... do something before submission

let actionButtons = form.getStageActions();
for(let i=0; i<actionButtons.length; i++){
  if(get(actionButtons, i).getId() === 'S_MySaveBtn')
     get(actionButtons, i).activate();
}

Other solution: go into the “Workflow view” of your form, and delete the submit button there (basically un-linking the “Start” and the “Submitted” stages). Then there is no save/submit button at all.
