If your menu item operation requires multiple kinds of data, or it requires data items in a particular sequence, you can get only one type of data, or one argument, via preselection. You cannot have the user preselect multiple data types (three pathnames and two label types, for example). If an item definition includes a preselect clause, its execution script includes at least one %selection macro, which is replaced by the preselected data at execution time. Preselect clauses are closely linked to the %selection macro. The actual restrictions are optional the parentheses are not. No preselection permitted (item not enabled if any data is selected)Ī parenthesized list of restrictions (see the restrictions arguments to the various input macros in the section “Input Macros”). User must preselect between two and four items, inclusive Same as user must preselect one or more items When constructing the “fast access” menu, use the f.alias function to clone menu items that reside elsewhere in the interface.įigure 18-5, Figure 18-6, Figure 18-7, and Figure 18-8 illustrate the results of scoping group files, respectively, to Typical usage - “Pick and choose” a set of commonly used menu items from elsewhere in the interface, and collect them together as a “fast access” menu scoped toįast:pulldown. (You could scope your “fast access” menu toįile:toolbar, but since only one group file can be scoped to a browser's toolbar, the standard iconic toolbar would be displaced.) Static menu option to duplicate a menu as a set of “fast access” buttons below the file browser's iconic toolbar. Static menu option that is prepended to each menu scoped there. If you close the original file browser, theįast menu is lost for the duration of the xclearcase session (even if you start a new file browser with theįilet -> New file browser option on another browser).įast menu's distinguishing feature is the It does not appear at all if no menu is scoped to it. The Fast scope is compatible only with menu type pulldown įast menu appears only on the file browser that comes up when you execute xclearcase. Look ahead to “Customization Procedures” for more recommendations regarding the customization process. Upcoming sections describe group file contents in detail. (This template is scoped to theįast menu, so you can use your additions as pulldown menus or add them to the toolbar as “push buttons”. Copy to your work area the predefined group file template /usr/atria/config/ui/grp/, and use it as a template for your own work. Alternatively, specify a group file search path with the environment variable grp_path, and do your customization work in any of its component directories.
grp subdirectory of your home directory ( $home/.grp:/usr/atria/config/ui/grp is the the default group file search path). To add your own menus, create new group files in the. It is also not advised to copy and edit them elsewhere - they amount to “source code” future ClearCase enhancements and bug fixes will leave you behind. You should not edit these files in place. The default, predefined group files are installed in /usr/atria/config/ui/grp.
