Access level to subordinate files |
The drop-down list allows you to set access rights to subordinate files. Subordinate to documents are files such as libraries of styles, layouts, attribute types, etc. The following access level options are available: •Enable reading Allows other workstations to only read files that are subordinate to documents that are open on this workstation. For example, if you open a drawing that uses a line style from a library, other users (on other workstations) will be able to apply styles from that library, but will not be able to modify them. In addition, they will be able to copy the file of the line style library you are using, but they will not be able to rename or delete it. •Enable reading and writing |

To the right of the list is a field that allows you to enter a value for the time interval after which the system will perform change control of shared files. The default value is 1 minute. The field is available if Yes is selected in the list. |
