Release View
Previous  Top  Next

The Release View is designed to organize and display your change log entries much in the same way as you will see them when they are published (more on this below).

In Release View, your change log entries are displayed with an icon that represents the type of log entry, the description of the entry (as configured in the ChangeLog Entry Type Settings) and then the actual entry. Multiple lines will be displayed if all the text for the entry will not fit on one line.


In the screen shot above, one unreleased item is in the section marked "Current Change Log Entries". The other items have been released as "Version 1.1.0".

New items appear at the top of the list, with the most recent entry at the very top.

Note: You can click the release header to collapse or expand the header. You can also use the Expand All and Collapse All buttons to control all the release headers at one time.

Clicking an entry opens it again in edit mode.

If you want to delete an entry you can use the right-click menu or switch to the data view.

You can also simply click to view the entry in edit mode, then check the "Delete this Change Log entry when you click OK
" box on the form as shown here:

Public and Private entries

ChangeLog entries that are NOT marked for publication will be represented by a version of the icon that has a Red Dot in the corner. Examples are shown here:
