Steps to Reproduce

- Translate it into Dutch using the localization wizard
- Setup a screen that displays everything in read-only with an edit button
- Upon clicking the edit button, open a modal that is editable
Root Cause
The read-only drop-down was configured to use pxTextInput control with the Read-only value field on the Presentation tab as Property Value, which picks the non-localized value of the property.
Resolution
Perform the below local-change:
Use pxTextInput control and specify Localize Property Value in the Read-only value field on the Presentation tab.
OR
Use the pxDropDown control and specify Display text of selected option in the Read-only value field on the Presentation tab.
