Synopsis: Republish or update representation when metadata on a WTDocument is changed and the WTDocument does not iterate.

Description: When the metadata on a WTDocument is changed and the WTDocument does not iterate (for example, a life cycle state is changed) the associated representations are updated. In certain cases (for example, when an OFFICE file on the WTDocument has an association to that metadata), it may be desirable to republish the representation rather than just updating it.

publish.service.duplicatepublishjobvalidation.enabled

Default Value: True

Synopsis: Prevents multiple submissions of existing publish jobs

Description: Submission of a new publish job is prevented if it is for the same name, representable instance, request source (manual), or publisher queue priority. Instead, this publish job is set as a being processed and in the READY state. In addition, a message appears noting that the job was not submitted because the same job is the queue.

webpage.thumbnailnavigator.navigabletypes

Default Value: PART PARTALTERNATEREP

Synopsis: Specifies whether data should or should not be navigable when a 3D view is shown in the Thumbnail Navigator. When set to True, the data is navigable; when set to False, the data is not.

Description:Navigable in this sense it means that the scene is formed from the thumbnail of the dependents, and a mouse over of those dependents highlights the graphics and the child in the “Uses” section. For non-navigable types, the 3D scene is formed from the thumbnail of the assembly, and there is no highlighting.  For example, for a WTPart structure, if it is navigable, the child thumbnail will be shown; if it is not navigable, the parent's thumbnail will be shown. If the parent does not have a representation, there are no graphics. For WTPartAlternateRep (Design Context) the above applies, but depending on the rules used, the child thumbnails may appear differently from the way that the WTPartAlternateRep actually looks. If the latter is a concern, the value should be set to False.
