Check Out

Command: ‘Project’ ‘Data Base Link’ ‘Check Out’

The object which is marked in the Object organizer will be checked out from the data base and by that will be locked for other users.

When executing the command the user will get a dialog ‘Check out object’. A comment can be added there which will be stored in the version history of the object in the data base. Line breaks are inserted by <Ctrl>+<Enter>. If the version of the object differs from that in the local project, an appropriate message will be displayed and the user can decide whether the object should be checked out anyway.

After the dialog has been closed with OK, the checked-out object will be marked with a green check in the object organizer of the local project. For other users it will be appear marked with a red cross and will not be editable by them.
