Not sure what you are asking. 

Revit is always syncronizing with the central file to keep track of who owns what.  Changes to elements are not made in the central file unless you do a save to central.  I set my witch not to automatically save to central when I close becasue I may be working on something I don't want to save yet or lose control of.

Read these in your help:

It is exactly as you read it and if you read and followed the link in what I sent you would read:

"Verify that Save local file before and after synchronizing with central is selected to ensure your local file remains synchronized with central."

You dont understand my quedtion yet. I want to know which file is updated first, when i have NOT checked that option, the local with the central or the central with the local? Because if local is updated first, it could lose editions.

I don't think you understand Revit.  When you work on an element in Revit, be it existing or something you created, Revit applies a lock to that item to prevent anyone else from editing it.  So in essance, the order of update does not matter, you can not lose your changes.  This switch only assures that your local file matches exactly what your Revit file is that you have open.
