Streams Pane

The Streams pane shows the current stream and all of its children in the stream hierarchy. The display shows only the stream's immediate children, but you can expand the nodes to explore the stream hierarchy.

The context menu in this pane provides access to the following commands:

GUID-46AA602E-5DDE-490F-BAA0-071C4D4C783F-low.png Open

Opens the selected item. For more information, see Using the Open Command.

GUID-52F84CD5-4E34-4E20-B297-B19B3B02FCA3-low.png Look up Stream
Opens a Look up Stream tab that can be used to search for streams below the current stream in the stream hierarchy. See Search From options for more information.
GUID-14AF57EA-3383-48F7-AF9A-97C216015E03-low.png Open Basis Stream
Opens the basis stream of the selected stream in a new File Browser tab.
GUID-34A40991-4FD0-44EC-B7B3-9BD4687FA7D9-low.png New Stream
Creates a new stream as a child of the selected stream. An Adding a Stream to a Depot dialog box appears to specify settings for the new stream. This command is not available from a workspace.
GUID-83C54F4D-BD84-4721-965B-AB3D0C0671B9-low.png Show Active Issues
Shows development activity for the selected stream in an Issues tab. An issue is active in the stream if one or more active elements have been associated with it (during promote, for example). An element is said to be active in a workspace or stream if a new version of the element has been created there, and that version has not been either (1) promoted to the parent stream or (2) purged from the workspace or stream. The set of elements associated with an issue is referred to as a change package. This command is not available from a workspace.
Note: AccuRev determines that an element is active (changed) if its basis version (the version that appears in the backing stream) and head version (the most recent version in the stream) differ. That is, a new version of the element has been created and is still part of that stream's default group.
GUID-55505146-431F-4105-BCE8-EA5FE1C13575-low.png Show Active Transactions
Shows development activity by transaction for the selected stream in a History Browser tab. A transaction is active in the stream if one or more active elements are part of the transaction.
GUID-FA010F3B-2D33-4C82-BFEF-BD9692AAFB7E-low.png History
Shows the history of all elements in the History Browser tab.
GUID-625083DC-2881-4B39-B9B6-91F3A3750A78-low.png Issue Diff
Shows in a Diff Against window the change packages that differ between two selected streams. Click the first stream, then click the Issue Diff icon (or the Issue Diff context menu item), then click the stream you want to compare. (To cancel the Diff, just right-click the mouse.)
GUID-625083DC-2881-4B39-B9B6-91F3A3750A78-low.png Diff Against Basis (by Issues)
Shows the change packages that differ between the selected stream and its backing stream in a Issue Diff tab. This command is not available from a workspace. See Diff Against.
GUID-625083DC-2881-4B39-B9B6-91F3A3750A78-low.png File Diff
Shows in a File Diff tab the files that differ between two selected streams. Click the first stream, then click the File Diff icon (or the File Diff context menu item), then click the stream you want to compare. (To cancel the Diff, just right-click the mouse.)
GUID-625083DC-2881-4B39-B9B6-91F3A3750A78-low.png Diff Against Basis (by Files)
Shows the files that differ between the selected stream and its backing stream in a File Diff tab. This command is not available from a workspace.
