InDesign

TOPIC APPEARS IN:

Workflow icons

Icons can appear on text and graphics frames, in the Links panel, the Assignments panel, and in the story bar (InCopy only). Edit status icons appear next to the managed file in the Links panel and Assignments panel, and communicate content status. Text frame icons appear on a text frame that contains a linked InCopy story (in the Layout view in both InDesign and InCopy). These icons also communicate content status and can be used to differentiate between managed and unmanaged content. The associated tool tip indicates editing status and ownership. To view the text frame icons, make sure that frame edges are showing in InDesign and InCopy (View > Show Frame Edges).

Note: (InDesign) The InDesign document window must be in Normal Mode for the frame edges to show. (Click the Normal Mode button  at the lower left of the toolbox.)
