Managing Markups

When you select Markup Layers in the Brava! viewer window, a list of markups for the selected file that are available for you to view, appears. You can edit markup names, delete markups, and modify security.

You can also create a new markup file with a predefined name. This is provided for administrators who want to create shared markups or to pre-create markup files for their users.

You can also access this same information from ALIM Web (without opening the Brava! viewer) using the popup menu next to a file in the Files view (select the Markup Layers option).

The markup files list consists of a table that displays each of the markups that are visible to the user. By default each markup is saved so that it is private to the user that created it. Your administrator can also configure an option in the ALIM Web Server's WEB.CONFIG configuration file to allow a security group to be specified that also has access to the markup.

The list of files contains the name of the markup copy, and extra remarks (the remarks can only be seen in this view and are meant for administrators to make notes). The user can select one or more markups and then select Delete selected markups to remove them.

Clicking a markup's + icon next to the markup, displays the security editor for the file. You can use this editor to add or remove security principals and to change their access to the markup. The security editor works identically to the edit screen on other AssetWise objects.
