Select elements

On this page, you select files and folders in the destination view to build a list of elements to be considered for merging.

Use this page to build a list of files and folders in the destination view. When the Merge Manager searches for versions that require a merge, it searches the VOBs for files and folders that appear on this list. Any file or folder on the list whose from-version (the version in the VOB) is not the same as the version selected by the destination view is a candidate for merging. By default, the from-version is the latest version on the main branch of the element in the VOB. You can specify different selection criteria for the from-version on the Specify selection criteria and merge options page of the Merge Manager.
