Editing standard text—overview
You can edit standard text when the elements are active and the access control list permits.
When editing standard text, you can add and remove text, data collection definitions, and symbols.
- Click Edit .
Note
Only the librarian is permitted to enter edit mode, as defined in the access control list.
All editing changes take effect only after you perform a Save operation. For example, if you employ a standard text query to search for a text snippet in the Structure Search view, your search only returns the result for an already saved text snippet.
