Registry region view tags node

The View Tags node lists all view tags in a region of the host's ClearCase registry. When you select a view tag in the list, actions become available for managing the selected view tag.

In addition to the actions that create a view tag, you can use a drag-and-drop operation to copy a view tag to another region. To do this:

  1. Verify that the View Tags node for the region in which you want to create a view tag is visible in the console tree.
  2. Navigate to the View Tags node for the region that contains the view tag you want to move or copy.
  3. Drag a view tag from the list of view tags in the details pane to the View Tags node for the destination region in the console tree. By default, dragging moves the view tag to the destination region. To copy the view tag, hold down Ctrl and drag the view tag.

After you create a new tag by pasting or dragging an existing tag, check the new tag's global path to verify that it is accessible to all hosts in the region. To edit the global path, select the new tag and click Action > Properties.

Actions

New > View Tag: Opens a dialog box in which you can create a new view tag entry in the region.

Paste: Creates a new view tag in the region with the same properties as a view tag that you have copied from another region. This action is available only when you have copied such a view tag to the clipboard. To copy a view tag, navigate to the View Tags node for another region, select a view tag in the list, and click Action > Copy.
