Can "Locate Change Sets" configurations be saved for reuse?
Accepted answer
The most useful feature (for me at least) to add relevant search targets is to click on the green "+" icon in the 'Search Targets' menu, and select "Add workspace and flow targets shown in the Pending Changes view'; or you can select 'Add streams from project and team areas that I am a member of'.
Also, one of the best ways to 'save' and 're-use' a random or mix selection of Locate Change Sets [LCS] 'objects' is to put them in the favorites folder in the Team Artifacts view, then drag and drop the selection into the LCS editor...
Here's a listing of different ways to add 'objects' to the LCS editor:
Ways to add Work Items:
-Since RTC 4.0, you can drag & drop a selection of work items from various places in the UI (ex: The "Work Items" view, or from work items in the favorites folder in the Team Artifacts view)
-Since RTC 4.0, you can drag & drop a work item query from the Team Artifacts view. This will automatically run the query and add the work items.
-The work item picker dialog now allows multi-selection. Added in RTC 6.0.3 S5
Ways to add Change Sets:
-Since RTC 4.0, you can drag & drop a selection of change sets from various places in the UI (ex: The "Pending Changes" view, "History" view, "Search" view, etc.)
Ways to add Streams/Workspaces/Snapshots/Baselines/Builds:
-Since RTC 4.0, you can drag & drop a selection of streams/workspaces/snapshots/baselines from various places in the UI (ex: The "Pending Changes" view, "History" view, "Search" view, "Team Artifacts" view favorites folder, etc."
-You can also drag & drop a selection of team area nodes from the "Team Organization" view, which will add all streams owned by those team areas.
-You can also drag & drop a selection of project area nodes from the "Team Artifacts" or "Team Organization" view, which will add all streams owned by those project areas and all child team areas.
-You can drag & drop a repository node from the "Team Artifacts" view. This will show a confirmation prompt, asking if you want to add all streams in the repository.
-You can drag & drop a selection of build results. This will add their corresponding build snapshots.
-You can open the Locate Change sets editor directly on releases (shown on the "Releases" tab of the Project Area editor). This will add the corresponding build snapshots.
-The snapshot picker dialog allows multi-selection. Added in RTC 5.0.2.
-The stream/workspace picker dialog allows multi-selection. Added in RTC 6.0.2.
-The stream/workspace picker dialog allows multi-selection. Added in RTC 6.0.2.
