It is not unusual for us to have a situation where there is a main
document (let's call it A) that contains a referenced document (let's
call it B) that also contains another referenced document (let's call it
C). So it's a case of what one might call a double nesting of documents.
The "Options / Preferences / Save / Automatically update references in
modular documents" check box is checked. This is with XXE version 8.2.0.
Suppose we are editing A and use the "Edit Referenced Document" command
to go to B and then immediately while in B use the "Edit Referenced
Document" command to go to C. If we make a change in C (and save it),
return to B via the "Edit Referencing Document" command and then return
to A (also using the "Edit Referencing Document" command), the changes
made in C are not present until we reload document A afresh (at least,
that's how we've gotten it to be present).
If, on the other hand, we go from A to B to C, make a change in C (and
save it), return to B, make a change (and save it), and then return to
A, any changes in C are now present in A.
So it looks like one has to make some kind of change (or at least do a
save operation) at each point along the way for the changes in the
nested document to surface in the main document. Is this by design? If
not, is there another way of getting changes made in a doubly nested
file to appear without making a (possibly no-op) change in the middle
layer(s) and saving them?
Thanks,
