Access
The Release preferences dialog is accessed from the Preferences dialog by clicking Save to server from the Save button drop-down menu. In the Choose Item dialog (this is a trimmed-down version of the Explorer panel), choose the next planned revision of an existing Designer Preferences Item, or create a new Designer Preferences Item (and initial planned revision). After choosing the required target Item Revision, click OK. The Edit Revision dialog will open in which you can change the Name and Description, and add release notes as required then click OK. This dialog is used to manage the way in which the range of Altium NEXUS Preferences are released to the targeted revision of the Designer Preferences Item.
Only Administrators for your managed content server can release preferences to that Server.
You need to have an Altium NEXUS Preferences Item created in your server before accessing the Edit Revision dialog.
