About P4V icons

P4V uses a variety of icons and badges (decorations) to depict Helix Server objects and their status. The following table describes commonly encountered icons.

P4V displays file icons in the Tree pane and throughout the user interface, with file status indicated as shown in the following table. Note that file icons might be displayed with multiple "badges" (for example, check marks, lock indicators), each indicating an aspect of the file’s status. This table does not list all possible combinations. Note that red badges indicate actions taken by you, and blue badges indicate actions taken by another user. To display a tooltip containing more details about a file’s status, hover the mouse pointer over the file.

specdepot

Spec depot: when enabled by your Helix Server administrator, a spec depot stores the history of changes to Helix Server specifications such as changelistsA list of files, their version numbers, the changes made to the files, and a description of the changes made. A changelist is the basic unit of versioned work in Helix Server. The changes specified in the changelist are not stored in the depot until the changelist is submitted to the depot. See also atomic change transaction and changelist number..
