Re: [WDSCI-L] Source came from what connection

One way to tell is to click the "Link with editor" toggle, which is
an icon that looks like two yellow circular arrows, up near the top
right of the "Remote Systems" panel. Then, when you select a source
tab the corresponding member is selected in the Remote Systems panel
so you know which one you're working with.

Subject: [WDSCI-L] Source came from what connection

I got a quick (I hope) RDi question. I am running Version 9.6.0.4 of

RDi.

I have several connections created, each to the same system but
different library list. This is working.
My question is. When I have a source member open in the LPEX editor
how can I tell from what connection was it opened from?

Kerwin,

There is an RFE for this. It's an 'Uncommitted Candidate'--I'm sure more
votes would help. :)

Tim,

I've never got the link with editor to work where it shows me
anything--probably because of how I work. I usually open my source via the
Object Table or the member open dialog. If I open the RSE view and select
the Link with Editor, I can see no clue as to which connection I used to
open the source. (I also have the RSE view minimized so it works like the
old Quick View--i.e., where it disappears after I use it. Maybe if someone
leaves the RSE open and works from there it's more helpful.

Any suggestions on how to get better results working from the Object table
or Open member dialog?
