Re: iSphere Feature Suggestion

[Brian Parkins <goodprophet.bp@xxxxxxxxx>]

Daniel, you said:
"It maybe would be enough to have 2 object tables open with different 
sources/filters - but this is impossible right now. Today I open RSE on 
one machine - and object table on the other - but you can't compare, and 
you have to "manually sync scroll" both lists - which is kind of 
cumbersome."

This IS possible (sort of) now within RDi.

- Create two Perspectives, both having the Object Table view
- To make life easier, maximise the Object Table views in both Perspectives
- Within each Object Table, log in to the appropriate server - and 
filter accordingly

To make life even easier, change the default setting for Perspectives in 
Preferences:

WINDOW > PREFERENCES > GENERAL > PERSPECTIVES > Open a new Perspective > 
In a new window

Close/open both Perspectives if necessary, then you should have two 
separate windows (Object Tables) which you can place side-by-side.

You won't be able to copy/paste between the Perspectives, but you CAN 
right-click on a member and use the iSphere 'Copy Member(s) to' function.

HTH,
Brian.

And I could easily do member compares my selecting the member in both machines and doing "Compare with each other".
