Shaun Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 Hi, Whilst looking into the new TSVN tool today I came across a use for the "Rename" function - I was thinking that this would be a great way to get LabVIEW and SVN to play nicely in a way that is not normally possible. What I wanted to do was move a VI from /Project/FolderA/File1.vi to /Project/FolderB/File1.vi. However, the rename dialog did not seem to give me any way to adjust the folder of the VI, only the name itself. Am I missing something and if not, would you consider adding this in future releases? Thanks, Shaun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Shaun Hi Shaun, I'm pretty sure that you can move a file in the TSVN rename dialog. For example, to move /Project/FolderA/File1.vi to /Project/FolderB/File1.vi, simply enter ../FolderB/File1.vi as the new name. Now, I'm not sure, off-hand, whether the JKI TSVN Tool will handle this gracefully -- I'm about 75% confident. Please try and let me know Thanks, -Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Kring Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 Hi Shaun, I just did a quick test and it's not working the way that I thought it might. TSVN moves/renames the file to the new directory, but LabVIEW doesn't know that the file has moved to a new location. In this case, after you rename the file with TSVN, you should do a Save As in LabVIEW an select the new location in the file dialog.
