Hi Sankatha,
the only way to version your docs and to leave a version comment I know of is to check-out and to check-in. During check-in you can choose the numbering (major/minor) and you can leave a comment.

Thank you very much heiko.robert. Well in that case is there a possibility where I can checkout (edit offline) and use an inline editor to change the doc and check it back again ? Any lead will be greatly appreciated

inline editing is available for Text docs (Text, HTML). You can activate a doc for inline editing by cklicking on 'inline editable' in the details view. This will add the aspect for inline editable.

Ok ! Thanks for the quick reply. I will be a little descriptive. What I want to do is the following

1. Upload a text file (I have two rules created so it has inline editable aspect and versionable aspect and I have turned off the autoVersioning)
2. I need to checkout the file (I presume I do it by clicking on the edit offline link, which will lock the content and allow me to download a copy of the current version of the file. So obviously I can edit the downloaded file offline and upload the new version and add a comment to it)

What I want to to do instead of step 2 is to edit the file online using a inline editor and check in that inline edited version as a new version instead of downloading and editing it. Is this possible to do in Alfresco ? Hope I am clear enough. Again sorry for lack of my knowledge in Alfresco
