Many users to on document?

Is it possible for several users to work in the same document at the same time?

 

Or is it possible to notify user no 2 entering the document, that someone else has the document open and is working in it?

From the help file:

  • Simultaneous versus co-editing: In Photoshop, Illustrator, and Adobe Fresco, only one collaborator can edit a cloud document at a time (called asynchronous editing). In Adobe XD, multiple collaborators can work on a cloud document at the same time and view changes in real time. Edits are saved as you work together.

Is it then possible to set up so that the 2nd user entering the same document gets a notification, that there is someone else editing the document?

I believe so, but you can just try it out.

But how do I set it up, so that the 2nd (or 3rd) user entering the same program gets a notification, that there allready is someone editing the document?

Hello @Eydgerd5FFC,

 

Thanks for reaching out. As noted by Ton, only one collaborator can edit a cloud document at a time in Illustrator.

You may also vote for a feature request here (https://illustrator.uservoice.com/).

 

Feel free to reach out if you need further assistance in the future. We'd be happy to help.

 

Thanks,

Anubhav
