Oxygen XML Forum

Hello,

In Author web, we have set up a control to prevent saving when the document is invalid.
To do this, we've used the editorAboutToBeSavedVeto method.

We'll now take a look at setting up automatic saving with
We note that automatic saves do not trigger the editorAboutToBeSavedVeto method.
We'd still like to prevent saving (even automatically) when the document is invalid.

Is this possible?

Thank you for your help,

Johann

Hi,
Unfortunatelly currently there is no API to intercept autosave in Oxygen XML Web Author. But we have an issue registered in our internal issue tracker and I've registered your interest.

If you absolutely need to block saving invalid docs, you may consider using that sample plugin and disabling autosave with &autoSaveInterval=0 URL parameter.

Also, we created a plugin that blocks saving invalid documents, but automatic saves are not blocked [1]
