Adding and editing production guides


There are two types of adding and editing actions for production guides—for fields and for widgets. This topic describes both actions.

Only editors with the proper permissions can add and edit production guides. For more information on how to add these permissions, see Enabling editing permissions for production guides.

Note
There is no limit to the number of characters you can add to a production guide.

  1. From the header, click help to open production guides.
