Hi @nhudinh0309 this is the same experience as in v.13

It is surely a quirky situation to end up in, and I think the right solution to this would be communication (better description of the configuration field)

Here is the explanation:
The Hide content editor is specific towards the content editor of the Block Modal (and as well hides the edit button on the Block)
This is useful if you have own Custom View that brings a editorial UI. Then you do not want to have the same fields available in the Block Modal.
When turning on Inline Editing, then it behind the scenes sets Hide content editor to true, as you now only can edit via the interface directly on the Block (Similar to a Custom View with an Editorial Interface)

I hope that makes sense, we a Field Description could be enough to fix the misunderstanding?

Ive set this issue as Up-for-graps if you like to improve this case, feel free to make sure that this misunderstanding is less likely.
First idea is to append a description to the hide content editor field.
Additionally the field could become disabled and set to true when Inline Editing is set to true. Ideally with a text describing why.
