Calyx RIM 7.0 Publishing

Link Applicability

Applicability indicates whether the changes made to a link are Global or limited to the Application only.

Applicability can be changed for a link in sequence assemblies only. If Applicability is defined when the link is created and set to Application, the link will not appear in assemblies that do not belong to the current Application and do not contain copy of source document. If Applicability is set to Global when the link is created, the link will appear in all assemblies that contain a copy of the source document.

Beginning with Calyx RIM7.0 CHF 3, you can specify the default link Applicability for new links to Global or Application. The link applicability functionality works with sequence assemblies, not standalone assemblies.

Before performing the following steps, verify that you have Adobe Acrobat and Linking plug-in (PDF) installed on your computer.

To set the default link Applicability to Global or Application:
  1. In Calyx RIM, highlight any document with rendition assigned to the Assembly.
  2. In Document Attributes, select More > Prepare Documents for Linking.
    If the document is already prepared for linking, click OK to overwrite it. Verify that other users are not working with the link before overwriting.
    The Prepare Documents for Linking Location field will be populated in the Document Attributes window.
  3. Note: You cannot update the link Applicability for new links from Global to Application using Linking plug-in (PDF). To set up the necessary link Applicability, delete the link in Calyx RIM and create it again.
    Select More > Edit Document Links.
  4. Agree with the message about opening the file.
    The file will be opened in Adobe Acrobat.
  5. Highlight the text in the document and select the target in the Assembly (example: leaf) where the link should be connected.
  6. Select the Application or Global in the Applicability options list.
    The changes made to the links of the Application type are restricted by the Application.

    The changes made to the links of the Global type affect all the copies of the link.

  7. Select LIQUENT SmartLink > Save to Calyx RIM.
  8. Click OK to close the current in-process rendition.
  9. Go back to the Calyx RIM Assembly and highlight the document (example: leaf), refresh link inspector data by selecting the Prepare to Publish option.
  10. Highlight any node (example: leaf) and click Run Link Inspector.
  11. In the Link Inspector Query window, go to the Display Columns menu.
  12. In the filtering options, select Applicability.
  13. Click Search.
    All the links that meet the search criteria will be displayed.
  14. Verify that the Applicability type corresponds to the one you set up.
  15. To edit the link Applicability in the previously existing way, select the necessary link from the list in the Search Results.
  16. Click the Edit Link Applicability icon.
  17. In the Applicability drop-down menu, change Global to Application and Save.
    The link modified flag changes its color to red and the Link Modified description appears.
  18. To save the changes made, go back to the Calyx RIM Assembly and highlight the document (example: leaf), refresh link inspector data by selecting the Prepare to Publish option.
  19. Verify that the Applicability value is saved.
