Option 

Function 

ACL Management 

Presents the ACL Properties dialog, with which an Administrator can assign read/write privileges to users for the selected component.

Version Control 

Version History 

Presents a dialog with which you can track the version history for the selected component. The version history for a component that has been cut and pasted is preserved, since there can be only one instance of it. The version history for a component that has been copied and pasted is not preserved, since there can be multiple instances of it; the version number for each pasted instance is reset.

Check In 

Presents a dialog with which you can check in a new version of the selected component. 

Check Out 

Presents a dialog with which you can check out the current version of the selected component. 

Undo Check Out 

Presents a dialog with which you can reverse the last checkout of the selected component. 

Make Latest 

Presents a dialog with which you can check in the retrieved version of the selected component, making it the latest version. 

Tag 

Presents a dialog with which you can specify a tag to attach to the selected component. 

Delete 

Deletes the selected component, subject to the following conditions: 

  • You have write privileges for the component (see ACL Management, above).

  • You have the component checked out to your workspace.

  • The component is not checked out by anyone other than yourself.

    If these conditions are met, a dialog is presented in which you confirm that you want to delete the selected component. Clicking Yes then deletes the component.

Rename 

Activates the field, allowing you to rename the selected component. 

Properties 

Presents a dialog showing the configuration properties of the selected component, if such properties exist. 


Note –

All Environment component names should contain only alphanumeric characters (letters and numbers), dashes, and underscores.
