4.4.1.1. Creating Content Items in the Library

In order to create content items in the Library, proceed as follows:

  1. In the Library, click the library mode icon.

  2. Mark the folder in the tree view where you want to create your new content item.

  3. Click the Create document icon to create a content item or the Create folder icon to create a folder.

  4. If you have selected Create document, then a dropdown box appears, listing the content types that you can create at this position. Select your chosen content type from the list.

  5. A new content item is displayed in the content window and opened in the Form View. Replace the default system name with a name of your choice.

  • If the name already exists, then an error message is shown. If you click [OK,] the old name is restored. Click the old content name in order to type in a different name.

The content creation process is now complete.

[Caution]Caution

When you close a content item, the system asks you whether you want to accept or reject the changes you have made. "Accept" ensures that the system saves all changes made since the content item was opened. "Reject" restores the content item to its original state before it was opened. For newly-created content items, which you have not yet edited but which were opened when you created them, "Reject" has the effect of deleting the content item.
