View version selection rules

Use the Version Selection Rules tab of the ClearCase® View Configuration tool to see a view's version selection rules.

A view's version-selection rules determine which versions of elements in a load rule scope are selected for loading into a ClearCase view. If you are familiar with ClearCase config spec syntax, you can modify these rules or create new ones using the Edit Configuration dialog box. You can also copy version-selection rules from another view using the Edit Configuration dialog box.

Note: In a UCM ClearCase view, this tab shows only the custom element rules for the view, and is named Custom Element Rules. You cannot edit any other parts of a UCM view's version selection rules.
