Contents

You may want to have all articles to open with the same elements as the article that was open when you saved the workspace.

If you edit many articles with the similar set of elements, and you want to have some elements to reopen automatically (but not all elements), then this is a function that does for you.

The default setting: disabled

The recommended setting: enabled, if you intend to save at least one workspace.

To enable the article opening with the same elements as in saved workspace

1.On the Edit menu of the Articles main tab, or on the Edit menu of the Pages main tab while editing text, click Preferences.

2.On the Main tab, tick Open article txts as in saved workspace.

3.Click OK to save the preference.

About saving preferences in database

When you click OK, the preferences are updated in the memory and applied right-on. GN4 will store the preference in the database when you exit application. Anyway, should your GN4 crash or exit in any other abnormal way, the preference will not be stored in database, and you will have to repeat the previously described steps.

This preference is stored in the Editorial_SystemUserConfig for the securityRef corresponding to the user name. To display that configuration, open EdAdmin4, click Client Applications, expand the search pane in the left sidebar, in the Name enter editorial, and in the securityRef select the name of the user. Double-click the Editorial_SystemUserConfig to open the content. Locate the preference by name.
