File property: cannot copy the full path

Post by Tri » Wed Sep 03, 2008 9:31 pm

Using Vault Client & Server v4.12.

Typical scenario: A developer needs to indicate the Vault location by email to some co-workers. He then nevigates in the Vault folder tree (using Vault client), found the solution file, right clicked on the file an happily selected "properties". Then to discover that the absolute Vault path is not selectable for copy. In that same file property screen, the check-in comment is selectable. However, we rarely need to copy / paste this comment.

I know the trick of selecting the "Email" tab in the bottom which magically display the file path in the bottom pane in a selectable fashion. However, this method seems less intuitive. Is it possible to make the Vault path selectable in the file property dialog?

Thanks in advance.

Sure it is. In the Properties dialog, right-click the path and select Copy Path from the context menu.
