The Editor widget allows users to select and edit all features on a feature layer although the feature layer is instantiated with a selection mode and only a subset of features is displayed in the map.

Additional Information
Adding a feature layer to the map in a selection mode. API is doing what it is supposed to do. It is selecting features that intersect where you clicked on the map. That is what selection mode does. If you wish to edit features that meet only certain criteria than set the definitionExpression on the featureLayer. The editor will only allow users to edit the features that meet the definitionExpression. In the jsBin code I added the following line after where it creates the new feature layer. I confirmed that it works. It will only let you select features that meet definition expression criteria. Here the code… Layer("https://sampleserver6.arcgisonline.com/arcgis/rest/services/PoolPermits/FeatureServer/0", { mode: FeatureLayer.MODE_SELECTION, outFields: ["*"], opacity: 0.75 }); //added this line below noPermitFeatureLayer.setDefinitionExpression("apn = '234240014'"); var query = new Query(); query.where = "apn = '234240014'"; noPermitFeatureLayer.selectFeatures(query, FeatureLayer.SELECTION_NEW);Steps to Reproduce
