Description ulfzibis 2007-07-02 16:32:47 UTC
I suggest to provide a tool tip which pops up, if mouse is positioned on filename in the Projects browser.

The info shown there should be:
- branch
- version
- log or history info
- <more suggestions>

Additionally/alternatively there should be an entry in the Subversion context menu.
Comment 1 Peter Pis 2007-07-02 17:04:47 UTC
You can customize it in "Tools | Options | Miscellaneous | Versioning | Subversion -> Subversion Status Labels". You can
define what textual annotation should be displayed next to nodes in explorers. Then don't forget to switch on "View |
Show Versioning Labels" option.
Comment 2 Tomas Stupka 2007-07-02 17:35:45 UTC
i'm going to close this as it seems that the feature you requested already is covered by the "Show Versioning Labels"
functionality.

Comment 3 ulfzibis 2007-07-05 12:33:35 UTC
I reopen this issue, because the "Show Versioning Labels" functionality does not satisfy my expectation.

1.) It wastes space on the screen, and disturbs overview especially in the editors tabs.
2.) It's impossible to show the log entries this way.

Comment 4 Tomas Stupka 2007-07-05 12:53:35 UTC
- the log entry you want to see is the last one from the history, am i right?

josef - how do you see this?




Comment 5 ulfzibis 2007-07-05 13:55:24 UTC
Yes, that's right!
Additional Option: chooseable last ..3..5
Comment 6 ulfzibis 2007-07-05 17:08:06 UTC
Also shown "Subversion/CVS Status Labels" should truncate leading and trailing spaces.
Comment 7 ulfzibis 2007-07-06 20:22:29 UTC
To avoid, that such tooltips annoy to much, I additionally suggest, that the tooltip only pops up, if the mouse pointer
is exactly positioned in the small "badges area" between the file's icon and the file's name.
