Cancel Check Out Form
Use this to cancel a check out operation for a library, cell, view, or file.
When you cancel a check-out operation, the software restores your workarea and the project design management repository to the states they were in prior to the check-out. You can cancel a check-out operation if you have not made any changes to the checked-out files or do not want to save any changes you made to checked-out files.
Cadence recommends that you do not cancel check-out for design data files that are locked. A locked design data file is one that someone else is currently editing. If you try to cancel check-out for a locked file, an error message gets displayed. To resolve the error, close design windows or change the files to read-only mode before you cancel check-out.
The software cancels the check-out operation for each selected file. Files that are not selected remain checked out.

However, the ability to switch command tabs, in the respective forms, is restricted to the command action that is currently applicable, as the legal file sets are mutually exclusive.
The only exception is in relation to the Cancel Checkout and Check In tabs, when using the Check Out command, as either of these actions could be applied to checked out files.
