Configure prompt to save as a new version on close id222HBI00XXA

When the user tries to close a file that is opened in the Web Editor using the Close button on the file’s tab or the Close option in the Options menu, a dialog appears if the file has unsaved data or an unsaved version. The user is prompted to save the file as a new version if the version is not saved.

The following tabs provide instructions based on your Experience Manager Guides setup: Cloud Service or On-Premise.

Cloud Service

Use the instructions given in Configuration overrides to create the configuration file. In the configuration file, provide the following (property) details to configure a prompt to save as a new version on close:

table 0-row-3 1-row-3
PID Property Key Property Value
com.adobe.fmdita.xmleditor.config.XmlEditorConfig xmleditor.savenewversion Boolean ( true/ false).
Default value: true

When this configuration is enabled, the Save as a New Version checkbox is selected by default in the dialog box.
