Hi @<1523701435869433856:profile|SmugDolphin23> thanks for your answer. I am not sure that I understand. I ran a test by cloning and experiment and editing the OmegaConf object under Configuration > Hyperparameters > OmegaConf.

Unless I also change the allow_omegaconf_edit flag to True , I won’t see my changes reflected. That is my question. As a new user, it seems counterintuitive that I have to also change the flag. Does this make sense to you? Thanks.

Hi @<1603198134261911552:profile|ColossalReindeer77> ! The usual workflow is that you modify the fields in your remoter run in either the Hyperparameters section or the configuration section, but not usually both (as in Hydra's case). When using CLI tools, people mostly modify the Hyperparameters section so we chose to set the allow_omegaconf_edit to False by default for parity.
