Description neil_buesing CLA 2002-03-07 16:02:51 EST 
Build v20020305 / Team 2.0

In past versions (v20020214 / Team 1.0) if I did "Synchronzie with Stream" it 
would open a new perpsective with the Synchronize View.  I understand this is 
removed, since the Team perspective is gone in Team 2.0.  (I like this design 
change).

What I would like to have, however, is to have an option to have "Synchronize 
with Repository" to use a open "Synchronize View" even if it is in a different 
window (previously cloned perspective).

I don't think you can do this in Eclipse.
If you open a view, it looks for one with that ID in your current perspective.
Most people find the perspective switching annoying.

I guess this means you can't replicate a "Sync" perspective like we used to.

No longer valid with the new sync view. The sync action is gone and the view is
live.
