Auto-closing of page on setting a workstate

In the version 2.3 you can activate the auto-closing of page on setting a workstate.

The functionality is disabled by default.

Defining workstates to auto-close a page in EditorialConfig

Add to the EditorialConfig the following lines, replacing the ---- with the ID of the related page workstate for the statuses New, Edit and Layout.

    <Item Name="glbWSReadyClosePrintPage" Value="----" />

Example:

    <Item Name="glbWSReadyClosePrintPage" Value="3945" />

Note: the above ID is related to a specific system and won't work on your system. Put the IDs related to the workstates on your system!

Enabling auto-action

The action is enabled on setting the glbWSReadyClosePrintPage to a value different than 0.

How it works?

The modified script ChangePageWorkstateDialog v2 handles now the auto-closing of page.

When setting the workstate with id as specified in glbWSReadyClosePrintPage: You are prompted to confirm the closing of the page. In future, this will be updated to handle also the printing of page.
