Checking Out Objects When Not Logged In
Go Up to Working with Objects in the Repository
If you are not logged in to the Repository and try to modify a Repository item that is not checked out, you can check out the item locally and then run the delayed check out command later when you can connect to the Repository. This allows you to modify your local copy of a diagram from the Repository without connecting to the Repository, which is useful when you do not have a network connection, want to move objects in the diagram without checking them out, or get quicker access to large models.
When you are connected to the Repository and want to check out the diagram from the Repository, choose Repository > Diagrams > Run Delayed Checkout.
