Check for Check-out should be first

[Matt Overton]

I'm hoping this has been fixed in later versions.

In Project sharing why is the check to see if things can be checked-out and altered the last chain in the link?

 

I mean I can select a viewport... Open Annotations... Paste something from another file...Require new classes to be created by that paste...Asked if I want new classes to be turned on in viewport... and then and only then have the whole exercise revert as the viewport is checked-out to another staff member.

 

Seems like check should not have let me enter annotations at all.

Oh man, same thing with Title Blocks. I can waste many minutes a day on this.

Worst case I've found so far is Publishing drawings. The command works the drawings output as PDF files with updated plot dates then the command fails on one TB the whole thing reverts and the working file is left different to the output.

Yeap, experienced that too.
