Manage Document Relationships

As you build your content and link various documents, you may need to review the relationships between documents and repair broken links that resulted from deleted or unavailable documents, for example.

The Developer provides toolpanes that allow you to:

You can display these toolpanes from the Library or any document editor. When you use these toolpanes from the Library or Outline Editor, you must select one document to view its related documents or broken links. When you display these toolpanes and open a document in a document editor, these panes automatically display the results for the open document.

Note: The Related Documents and Broken Links toolpanes are empty if you select multiple documents from either the Library or Outline Editor. Select only ONE document to display the appropriate results.

You can open any document listed in either the Related Documents or Broken Links toolpane by double-clicking the document name.

Publishing Note: Broken links are automatically removed from any published output.

networking icon Multi-user Considerations

If you open a document that is not checked out to you, it opens in Read-Only mode. If you decide to make any changes to a Read-Only document, upon exit you are given the option to save the document (check out and save the changes), save it as a new document, or discard the changes.
