Use this activity to access a redline file in view-only format. Changes should not be made because the view-only redline file cannot be checked in. Other users can check out the redline file for editing when the file is checked out in view-only format. The redline application then has to create the redline file before it is viewed. If a redline file already exists, the redline application will open it when it finds it on disk. Different redline applications work differently in how the redline files are created and handled. The redline/comment functionality in IFS Document Management is compatible with how the redline tool RxHighlight works.
After clicking View, the external redline application starts and opens both the original file and the redline file in view-only format.
