Use this window to specify a shortcut to a snapshot
view. (Shortcuts to dynamic views that you own are automatically created when Rational® ClearCase® Explorer
starts or refreshes.)
- View Type
- Select Snapshot. If your host supports dynamic
views, this list contains the value Dynamic, which
you must select to create a shortcut to a dynamic view. Otherwise, this list
contains only the value Snapshot.
- View Tag
- If you select dynamic in View Type, this list contains
all dynamic view tags in the current network region. Select the view from
this list for which you want to make a shortcut.
- Page
- Select a page from the list of all pages on the Views page.
You can place shortcuts to views only on a page that is in the Views page.
It is better to place UCM views on a page that bears the name of the associated
project; do not place base Rational ClearCase views
on a page that is used for UCM projects.
- Description
- Enter the text that appears in a ToolTip window when you position the
pointer over the shortcut.
- Snapshot Location
- If you select Snapshot in View Type,
enter a path to a snapshot view, either on the current host or on a different Rational ClearCase host that
is accessible through a standard Windows file system. You may enter a UNC
path, a path with a drive letter, or a path relative to ccase-home-dir\bin.
Or click the browse button to the right to navigate to and select the location.
- Drive Letter
- If you select Dynamic in View Type,
this list displays the currently unassigned drives for your host. Do one of
the following:
- To assign the dynamic view to a drive, select one from the
list. The drive assignment is preserved even after you restart your computer.
- If you do not want to assign the view to a drive or if the
view is already assigned to one, select {none}.
Note: If the view is already assigned to a
drive and you select another one from the list, the view is assigned to both
drives.
