use q.hideField(this.form.SomeField).

To disable a field in a Dialog

use Serenity.EditorUtils.setReadOnly(this.form.SomeField, true);

To disable a Dialog

call this.setReadOnly(true); anywhere in your dialog.

To access parent/master dialog from child/detail dialog

Initialize detail editor by using q.initDetailEditor(this, this.form.someDetailField) in dialog's constructor() OR onDialogOpen() overload

Then you should be able to access parent dialog like this.parentEditor.parentDialog

Make sure that you have declared form in parent/master dialog as public
