Once changes are made the user can click the Save button in the bottom right hand corner to commit changes to the database. Note: User rights might be restricted by Form rights, Bank rights or the record being locked.

The user can show/hide the Item preview which displays the Item stem and option text formatted. It also displays any linked or embedded Attachment images. This area can be shown or hidden to save on screen real estate by using the Show/Hide Preview check box (in blue). The user can also refresh the preview display by clicking the Refresh Preview button.

Item Writing supports a Track Changes feature that uses additional markup to highlight areas of changed text on the Item or Option text. This additional markup is preserved with the Item text until such time as the changes are accepted. Only systems with the track Changes functionality implemented have these options available.

In screen shot above, the stem text of the Item has Track Changes mark up. Once the changes are accepted (using the Accept Changes button (in green) the additional mark up is removed.
