The Content tab is where you write a document’s chapters. On the left is
the Table of Contents with the chapter structure, on the right the editor
for the selected chapter.
Reading vs. editing
Without Edit, the tab is a read-only view — you can click through the table
of contents, nothing more. Edit brings reordering, renaming, creating and
deleting, plus the Cancel and Save buttons.
If you may not write in the Docs area, Edit and the Settings gear do not
appear: both are missing from the toolbar rather than disabled.
Edit mode is not a permission: set it by hand without the right to edit, and
the editor stays read-only.
When you can write
Two conditions decide, in order.
First, the status — this applies to everyone:
Second, the role — only for a controlled document with strict mode turned
on: then only the assigned Responsible person may edit the content, in
either open status. Without strict mode, and for plain documents, anyone may.
If no one is assigned as Responsible, the content is locked for everyone —
even for whoever wrote it. A banner names the reason and points to the
Properties tab, where you assign the responsible person.
While the document is In Review, the way back into editing runs through
Withdraw Request on the
Document Control tab — as long as an
approval request is open, the application rejects every change. Adding and arranging chapters
In edit mode:
At most six levels of nesting and at most ten subchapters per chapter — the
application reports it once either limit is reached. A chapter with no
subchapters, on the other hand, can be deleted down to the last one; the
table of contents then shows its empty state.
The trash icon on a chapter row removes only that one chapter. The trash
icon in the page header deletes the entire document and closes the
tab. The two sit close together and ask back with similar wording — check
which confirmation you are looking at before you confirm.
Editing costs the approval
Editing an approved document means losing its approval. Edit therefore asks
back first on an approved document; confirm with Edit Anyway, and the
document falls back to Draft and needs a new approval. The approved state
survives as a version in History. Unsaved changes
An edited chapter carries the hint Unsaved Changes. Leaving the page asks
back; if someone else changes the chapter structure in the meantime, the
application asks you to reload before saving.
Save past that hint, and you overwrite the other person’s chapter structure.
Reloading only costs your own unsaved changes, not theirs. The Content tab
does not reload during a state conflict — unlike the
actions on the
Document Control
tab, which reload silently. Exporting
The download icon opens the format picker: PDF, DOCX and HTML can be checked
individually or together. The export runs in the background and lets you
know when the file is ready. The cover page, table of contents and layout
follow the
export settings.
Submitting a controlled document for approval:
Document Control. Looking up earlier
versions: History.
