Progress Gauge

The Progress Gauge visualizes your book’s content according to its current editorial state, letting you know what you need to do now to move forward, and sometimes providing special options to kickstart your progress.

Roll over any segment of the gauge to reveal additional details.

Special options sometimes appear in the gauge to help you move ahead in the workflow.

Content Browser

The Content Browser in the bottom half of the editorial tab lets you browse the book’s content filtered by editorial state, and to change the editorial state of multiple items at once.

Use the drop-down menu at the top left to select an editorial state, and then click “Filter results” to show only content matching that state in the list below.

You can search the filtered results by title or description using the search field at the top right.

Set the Usage Rights status for individual items in the list by clicking the checkbox at the right.

Select multiple items just by clicking them (or Select all visible items using the button at bottom left); then use the drop-down menu at bottom left to change their editorial state (if possible, given your user role and the current state of the items).
