To save a design:

  1. Open a design in the Maestro editor and edit it as required.
  2. Click Save to save the changes.

Maestro comes with the save form notification mechanism.  |  17.10 This feature was introduced in 17.10.

If you have saved a desing while other Maestro editor users have the design open or have been working on it, they will see the following warning message:

Should any conflict arise while saving a design, the message displays the user name who has saved the design, so you can reach out to that user to discuss which changes should be saved or rolled back.

Note

When a user saves a form, Manager marks it as userSavedFlag = TRUE, so this form submissions won't be abandoned.
