Modifications
that you make to the Rational® ClearCase® Explorer
Shortcut pane affect the current and future instances of Rational ClearCase Explorer on the
current host only. Your modifications remain after upgrading to a new Rational ClearCase release.
General guidelines
When adding shortcuts
and pages in the Shortcut pane, consider the following guidelines:
- You cannot move a shortcut to another page. You must remove
the shortcut and create it on another page.
- You cannot add empty pages to the Shortcut pane. When you
add a new page, add a shortcut to the page. Rational ClearCase Explorer
removes any pages that are empty.
Guidelines for view shortcuts
When viewing shortcuts,
consider the following guidelines:
- You can add shortcuts to views only on pages that are on
the Views page.
- Rational ClearCase Explorer
creates a page on the Views page for each UCM project that you join. A shortcut
to a view that is associated with a project must be on the project's page
on the Views page.
- We recommend that you do not place shortcuts to non-UCM
views on a page that was created for a UCM project.
- You cannot export view shortcuts. Rational ClearCase Explorer
adds shortcuts to views that you own.
Guidelines for URL and tool shortcuts
When using
URL and tool shortcuts, consider the following guidelines:
- You can add shortcuts to URLs and executable files only
on pages that are on the Toolbox page.
- You can export your modifications to an external file, and
you can import site-specific default tool shortcuts from an external file.
