Once logged in, you can open .xodt files stored in the Cloud of your organization and work on these files.

To open a file from the Cloud, follow these steps:

1.In the Command menu, click File > Open in Cloud. Or press Ctrl+Shift+O.

2.On the left side of the window that opens, select the section containing the file you want to open.

3.Select the file.

If the Author or Owner of the selected file is deleted from the system by the administrator, a mark (inactive) is displayed to the right of his/her name. Deleting a user does not affect the levels of access to the document that he/she has previously granted to other users.

4.Click OK to open it.

The file will open in a new window.

If you select a file created by other users, the Status bar will display View, Edit or Manage sharing settings set by the author.

In the View mode, you are not allowed to modify the document or change its formatting. To do this, click Edit a Cloud Copy on the Toolbar.

The copy of the document is created in the root folder of the Cloud storage. It is automatically named Copy - <original name (n)>, where (n) is the copy number. When you create a copy, the original document is automatically closed and a copy of the document is opened.

In the View and Manage mode, you can access the document without restrictions. All changes will be automatically saved to the Cloud.

You cannot track or view changes in the View, Edit and Manage modes. The tracking changes mode is available only to the author of the document.

If you do not perform any actions on a document for a long time, the session is automatically terminated. A dialog box appears on the screen, which you can use to start a new session with this document or select another document to work with. If you want to close the document, click the close_dialog_window button in the dialog box.
