About the Editing page

The Editing page allows you to make changes to the contents of a topic.

Each of the areas within the Editing page have distinct functions, enabling you to navigate the IXIASOFT CCMS Web, understand where your content is within the context of the overall document you are working on, and tools to help you edit your content. There is also an area for directly adding and editing content, information on the content object you are working on, and the means to check in your work once you are done. The Editing page integrates the oXygen XML Web Author Component, a web-based editor.
