Description Davide Cavestro CLA 2009-04-17 09:35:04 EDT
Build ID: M20090211-1700

Steps To Reproduce:
1. Select a source file under CVS control from the Project Explorer (it's the same even from Package Explorer, etc)
2. Right-click on it and choose |Team|Switch to Another Branch or Version...| from the contextual menu. The modal "Update" dialog will appear.
3. Press the "Configure Tags..." button. The modal "Configure Branches and Versions for <you project name>" dialog will appear. Please note that there are no exploded folders.


More information:
On the "Configure Branches and Versions for <you project name>" dialog you will see the list of source folders configured for your project. All folders are collapsed, and you actually have to navigate another time to the same files you have previously selected (at step 1).
If that dialog could have the selected files path exploded, then the user would immediately see the relevant files.
It would be useful especially when you have several source root folders and a deep packaging (saving time is saving money...).

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
