Specify the label and application options

On this page of the Apply Label Wizard, specify the label to apply and the way to apply that label.

  1. In theWhich label do you want to apply? field, specify a label type to be applied to the elements that you specified in the previous step.

    Click Browse to open the Browse for Label window, which you lets you display and select an existing label type, or create a label type in the VOBs that you select. In this window, you can also clone, delete, rename, or view the properties of existing label types.

    Note: The label type you select or create must be available to all VOBs in which you are labeling elements. (That is, the label type either must be defined in the VOB or must be defined as a global type in the administrative VOB for the VOB.)
  2. For Move existing label?, specify whether to move a label of the same type.
    • To move the label from the other version to the version currently selected by your view, set Yes. This moves a label of the same type (if one exists) from another version of the element to the version currently in your view.
    • To leave the label on the other version, set No. (This does not move a label of the same type (if one exists) from another version of the element to the version currently in your view. The version selected by your view is not labeled.)
  3. For For each directory, label all the elements that it catalogues?, specify whether to label all elements that appear under each directory element or whether the label is to be applied to the directory element only.
    • To label both the directory and all elements contained within it, set Yes. This labels all versions of the elements at and below the directory you specified.
    • To label only the directory element, set No. This labels only the directory you specified.
  4. For Follow VOB symbolic links?, specify whether to follow the links.
    • To have the software follow VOB symbolic links and label the targets of the links, set Yes.
    • To not follow VOB symbolic links, set No. (This does not follow VOB symbolic links (the target of the link is not labeled). VOB symbolic links are not versioned and are not labeled.)
  5. (Optional) In the Comment field, enter a description of the purpose for each new label.
  6. Click Finish to apply the labels as specified in the wizard.
  7. After the wizard applies the label, you are asked whether you want to apply another label to the selected elements.
    • To apply another label, click Yes. (Repeat Steps 1 through 5 as necessary.)

      Click Back to change any of your selections.

    • To exit from the Apply Label Wizard, click No.
