Unable to Uncloak folders

Post by DivideByNought » Tue Aug 08, 2006 10:11 am

We have a large number of folders that have been cloaked, and now need to be uncloaked. Most of them have moved around within the repository while being cloaked. Right clicking on the folder the "Cloak" option is grayed-out. How can these be uncloaked? ...and is there a way to do a bulk uncloak?

Thanks!

I haven't run across where I couldn't uncloak a folder after moving it. Can you give me more details on the transactions you are performing between the initial cloaking and when you want to uncloak?

Also, what version of Vault are you using? Are you performing all transactions just from within Vault, or is there more involved here?

I'm not sure if moving the folder had anything to do with it, but I can't think of any other action that has been taken since the folder has been cloaked. Essentially we did a release of our software and took a snapshot of the branch. Since then the folder has been moved a couple times, but that's it.

I'm using SourceGear Vault Client 2.0.6 (2219)

Are the folders still gray as if they were cloaked? When files are cloaked or uncloaked, that is logged in the Vault Server Log

I can do a feature request regarding the mass uncloaking. I think it would be more useful to be able to search for cloaked files and then be able to do a mass uncloaking on only selected files from there. Does that sound useful?
