When you open a sandbox, Source Integrity displays its contents in a
Sandbox view.
Sandboxes can reside on the client machines and allow you to work locally
in your own workspace, without interfering with the work of others. You
can think of the sandbox as a local pointer to the project residing on the
Integrity Server. A sandbox is a mirror image of a Source Integrity project.
Although it looks and acts like the project it mirrors, it is actually a
collection of pointers to its real-life counterparts in the master project.
The Sandbox view displays project members, and subsandboxes in a tree
structure. You can expand and collapse a project, sandbox, and
subsandbox tree using one of the following options:
Double click the sandbox or subsandbox.
Click the plus or minus icons in the directory list.
Right click the sandbox or subsandbox and select Expand All.
Select View > Expand All or View > Collapse All.
Select a member by clicking it or by moving the selector bar to it with the
cursor control keys. Use the up and down arrows to move through the
project or sandbox hierarchy. Use the right arrow to open a project or
sandbox, revealing its members. Use the left arrow to close a project or
sandbox.
A box below the list of members displays all delta information: working
file deltas, new revision (member) deltas, and revision sync deltas. For
example, if the working file has been updated but not checked in, a
message tells you that the working file has been changed.
