Recycle Bin sidebar
View Work Items in repository that are no longer used in the Document. Access options for handling them.
This panel displays Work Items removed from the Document but still stored in the repository, and provides tools for handling them. It can be accessed from the Document Editor toolbar, and via the Open in Document's Recycle Bin button on the toolbar of Work Items currently in the Recycle Bin, when such items are viewed in the Table view of the Work Items Tracker. Options are:
Insert Work Item(s) into the Document
Delete Work Item(s) from the repository.
Move Work Item(s) to another Document in the project
Component Descriptions:
Check box: unlabeled - Selects all Work Items in the Recycle Bin.
Insert - Inserts selected Work Item(s) into the current Document at the current insertion point, and re-associates the item(s) with the Document.
- Permanently deletes selected Work Item(s) from the Recycle Bin and the underlying repository.
Move - Invokes the Move Work Item(s) dialog which provides the following options:
Move selected Work Item(s) out of Document: Disassociates the selected orphaned item(s) from the Document, but retains them as project artifacts in the repository where they are managed in the integrated Tracker and accessed via the Work Items topic.
Move selected Work Item(s) to Document: Associates the selected orphaned item(s) with another Document, to which they are appended. User must identify the target Document by selecting the name of the space in which the target Document resides, and then selecting the name of the target Document.
- Refreshes the list of Work Items in the Recycle Bin. This can be useful if one user is reading the Document while another user is editing it, or if one author has removed or merged Work Items in the document since the Recycle Bin was displayed in the Sidebar.
