Users on Asite having role privilege 'Can Create Comments' can create markup using Asite File Viewer. Markups may be created directly onto a file or drawing so that users may have cross-reference information. The Universal Web Viewer provides users with the ability to create, save and view markups online.
Administrators can configure markup options on any project. The markup options help administrators to configure system behaviour when any user creates a markup. Markup options and their details are as mentioned below:
Markup options for any project are accessible from the 'Project Settings' tab while editing a project in the Asite Web Application. Availability of markup options may depend upon whether the 'Commenting' activity is locked or unlocked for the selected file.
