Metadata filter

On Metadata Filter in the Options window, you can choose the types of metadata to be fetched and displayed in the Version Tree Browser. (Metadata is information, stored in a VOB, about a Rational® ClearCase® element.)

You can display the following information next to each version.

Under Filter Type, set or clear the option for the respective metadata type.

Under Lines, specify the number of lines of the related metadata to display.

Set Show tooltips for version tree objects to show or clear the option to hide the popup window that appears when the cursor passes over a version or branch object in the display.

Similarly, merge metadata is fetched and displayed on demand: click Merge Arrow (from the View menu) or the merge arrow icon.

Note: If the performance of the Version Tree Browser is unacceptably slow for a large element (for example, an element with hundreds of versions), specify that fewer metadata types are to be fetched.
