- The ClearCase Compare Baselines view displays differences in terms
of activities and versions. For more information, see the Compare Baselines view Help topic.
- New support for specifying activities to be considered for merging
- When performing a ClearCase Merge Search operation,
users can now select activities as merge candidates.

topic.
- New filter for Branch Types and Label Types
- When you select Branch Types or Label
Types in the ClearCase Navigator, the ClearCase Details
view now includes a filter for searching for the names of branch types
and label types.
- Only the names of branch types or label types that meet the filter
criteria appear in the ClearCase Details view. For example, if the
filter criteria is int*, only label types or
branch types beginning with the letters int appear
in the ClearCase Details view. Users can click the check mark to apply
the filter or click the X to remove the filter.
- Checkout status options have been combined into a pull-down menu
- When checking out ClearCase elements, you must select a status
for the checkout from the Reserved Checkout, Prefer
reserved, unreserved if necessary, and Unreserved
Checkout options. These options, which formerly appeared
as radio buttons on the Checkout dialog box, have now been combined
into a pull-down menu.
