Top  Previous  Next


You can perform the following project-level commands from the Project menu:

·Click Status to evaluate the RCS status of documents in the current project.  
·Click Scan New Files to scan the RCS Repository for new documents in the current project.  
·Click Update to update your working directory to the latest revision of the RCS Repository.  
·Click Check-out to check-out all documents within the current project. Use this command to check-out the latest revision of the RCS Repository to your working directory. For more details on the Check-out Dialog, refer to Checking-out Files Using the Document Explorer Tool in the CS-RCS Tools in the User Guide.  
Note: Unlike Update, the Check-out command gives you the option to change the lock state of the files and can be used to revert modified files to their previous revision.  
·Click Check-in to check-in all modified documents within the current project.  
·Click Properties to edit the settings of the current project. Refer to Editing the Project Properties in Configuring Projects in the User Guide for more details.  
·Click Workstation Properties to define the settings for the current project on your specific workstation. Refer to Customizing Projects on a Local Workstation in Configuring Projects in the User Guide for more details.  
·Click Create Shortcut to create a Windows Desktop shortcut for the current project and its sub-projects.
