Feature Requests/Suggestions

[StuartHemming]

These are from the people in my organisation using Vault.

1. A repository folder that is mapped to a working folder should have a different icon from one that is not.

2. It would be useful to have a Clear Working Folder command alongside the Set Working Folder one (toolbar button and context menu).

3. The Set Working Folder command should remember at least the most recently used working folder for each repository folder, rather than requiring the user to type it in (or browse for it) anew each time.

4. It would be nice to be able to change the fonts used for the various panes of the Vault Client window.

5. It would be nice if the Search tab allowed searches on 'selected' statuses (say, Missing and Old).

Nothing major, but it's the little things that niggle sometimes, isn't it?

1. A repository folder that is mapped to a working folder should have a different icon from one that is not.

That's a great idea. It might conflict with the "share" folder as you could have a share that has a working folder set, but maybe we could come up with another way to show where the working folders are set.

2. It would be useful to have a Clear Working Folder command alongside the Set Working Folder one (toolbar button and context menu).

Ok. I can see how that could be useful.

3. The Set Working Folder command should remember at least the most recently used working folder for each repository folder, rather than requiring the user to type it in (or browse for it) anew each time.

Mine always has remembered the path. I'll need to see where that is happening for you. Can you post a screenshot?

4. It would be nice to be able to change the fonts used for the various panes of the Vault Client window.

I'll take a feature request.

5. It would be nice if the Search tab allowed searches on 'selected' statuses (say, Missing and Old).

Do you mean a search on multiple statuses, or are you saying that you can't run a search on the status at all?

Indeed.

Right-click on a repository folder and select "Set Working Directory" or select a folder and click on the "Set Working Folder" icon.

Multiple statuses.

Another suggestion...

It would be nice if there was an accelerator key on the OK button in the Commit dialog, seeing as the normal OK accelerator (Return) is unavailable here if the focus is in the Comment field.
