Size information

Determines the unit of measurement used in the Size column in the Details pane. Set one of the following:

View root

Set Display only VOB name to omit the source control information about VOB root directories from the display in the Details pane. Only the name is displayed in the Folder pane. This option decreases the time needed to display the contents of a view root directory in the Details pane.

Tip: If you check out a VOB root directory when this option is selected, the Details pane does not indicate that the directory is checked out.

Information pane

Set Enable information pane to display the Information pane below the Details pane. The Information pane displays context information on an object that is selected in the Details pane and that is under source control. This provides help for a beginning user and supplies links to online information related to the currently selected object. Clear this option to hide the Information pane.
