Checking In Files and Properties Automatically

By default, when you close properties or files that were automatically checked out, or try to exit a session without closing properties or files that were automatically checked out, the Auto Check In form appears.

To complete the automatic check-in process, do the following:

1. In the drop-down list to the left of the item name, select yes.
2. Add the text in the Comment text box to specify relevant information about the check-in.
   When you add the information, such as version information, about a library or cell check-in, the software attaches a copy of the comment to every cellview in the library.
3. Click OK.

To stop the automatic check-in process, do the following:

1. In the drop-down list to the left of the item name, select no.
2. Click OK.

Alternatively, you can click Cancel to stop the automatic check-in process.

To cancel a check-out, do the following:
