Update Tool toolbar

The Update Tool displays a toolbar and a view selector.

Toolbar

The toolbar holds shortcuts to application tools and HCL VersionVault tools.

Place the pointer over a shortcut to display the ToolTip (hover) help that describes the application. Click an icon to run the related tool for an object or objects that you have selected.

On a Windows system, the tool also displays a list of visited snapshot views (view selector). And the toolbar is dockable.

View Selector

This list indicates the path and the view tag for the view in which the update operation occurred. The field contains entries for all your snapshot views.
