Ideas for Arc XP

Only allow one user at a time to be editing a gallery

Anglerfish allows multiple users to open galleries at the same time, and does not warn users if someone else already has a gallery open. If a user makes a change like reordering the gallery while someone else was making edits in the same gallery, the below error message occurs. This means editors can be duplicating work without realizing it, or have work overwritten by someone else's save. It would be preferable if Anglerfish, like Ellipsis, locked files once users opened them and had a knock/takeover function.

Gallery [SWSPEF5HQRDELBSJBS2E46WD4U] could not be saved because another user updated its database record at 2019-05-02 19:22:09.0. Reload the object, make your changes, and submit again.
