Drag and Drop
P4V supports drag-and-drop shortcuts for common tasks, as described below.
To enable or disable drag-and-drop file integration or diffing, choose Tools>Preferences
and set the desired option on the General tab.
- To get a file revision at a submitted changelist, workspace, label
or file revision, drag the submitted changelist, workspace, label or file
revision to the field next to the Get Revision dialog To field.
- To integrate files, drag the source files or folders to the target
files or folder.
- To label a file, drag a file or a folder to a label. Alternately,
drag a label onto a file or folder.
- To diff two file revisions, drop a file or a file revision onto
another file revision. To display file revisions, context-click the file and
choose File History.
- To diff revisions of different files, display the File History for
both files, then drag a revision from one window to the other and drop it
on the other revision.
- To diff two folder revisions, drop a folder revision onto another
folder revision. To display folder revisions, context-click the folder and
choose Folder History.
- To add files to a pending changelist, drop files onto the pending
changelist itself, or onto the Files field of the pending changelist's Submit
form.
- To move a file from one changelist to another, drag files from the
source Submit form to the target Submit form. Alternately, choose Display>Pending
Changelists, and drag the files from the source changelist to the target
changelist.
- To filter the pending changelists or submitted changelists displayed
in the left pane, drag files or folders from the Tree pane to the filters
field above the changelist pane.
- To add a job to a changelist, drag the job from the Jobs tab of the
right pane to the Jobs field of the pending changelist. You cannot attach
