Document Status Dialog for Sigs
Note: Deprecated with 8.0.For application versions prior to 8.0, these preferences control whether the application displays the document status dialog when a user opens a certified document. The dialog contains a Do not show this dialog next time this document is opened checkbox allows users to turn the dialog off for the currently viewed document when it is next opened.
The application stores a list of document IDs, and each ID is associated with the user's choice and the last certifying signature status. When the application matches an opened document with an ID in the registry, The application respects the choice as long as the certifying signature's validity status has not changed since the last time the document was opened.
Administrators can turn off the document status dialog for specific documents by distributing a preference which contains the signature status and suppress status for particular document IDs.
