Inplace provides an easy to do editing and display at the same time where clicking the output displays the actual content.
import { InplaceModule } from 'primeng/inplace';
Inplace component requires display and content templates to define the content of each state.
<p-inplace>
<ng-template pTemplate="display">
<span>View Content</span>
</ng-template>
<ng-template pTemplate="content">
<span>
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit...
</span>
</ng-template>
</p-inplace>
Inplace can be used within a form to display a value as read only before making it editable. The closable property adds a close button next to the content to switch back to read only mode.
<p-inplace closable="closable">
<ng-template pTemplate="display">
<span>Click to Edit</span>
</ng-template>
<ng-template pTemplate="content">
<input type="text" value="PrimeNG" pInputText />
</ng-template>
</p-inplace>
Any content such as an image can be placed inside an Inplace.
<p-inplace>
<ng-template pTemplate="display">
<div class="inline-flex align-items-center">
<span class="pi pi-image" style="vertical-align: middle"></span>
<span class="ml-2">View Picture</span>
</div>
</ng-template>
<ng-template pTemplate="content">
<img

</ng-template>
</p-inplace>
