Configuring the BaselineViewControl

These steps explain how to define fields for the baseline tab.

Before you begin

These steps allow a trained administrator to make simple changes. Fundamental changes require training or consulting support for SDL LiveContent Architect.

Procedure

  1. Locate the file MetadataConfig.xml on the server in the folder $\Author\ASP\ClientConfig.
    All dialogs and views are automatically generated from this metadata configuration file.
  2. Make a backup copy of this file.
    If your changes turn out to be incompatible with the system, you should revert to the original version.
  3. Open the original file in an XML editor and make sure that the schema named MetadataConfig.xsd is available for XML validation.
  4. Familiarize yourself with the structure of this file. Note that there is an ishlist element called Trisoft.PublicationManager.Forms.BaselineViewControl that defines all fields appearing on the baseline tab.
  5. Move the ishlistfield name="NewerVersionField" to another position in the Trisoft.PublicationManager.Forms.BaselineViewControl fle. For example, after ishlistfield name="Added-ByField".
  6. Validate and save the file.
  7. Verify your changes.
