I just realized that not all of you may have a community account so since I
had not completely posted this out here I decided to copy my post from the
communities to here..

 

***Begin of my post to the communities***

I verbally spoke about this idea to the Developer Studio development team at
the WWRUG and I feel it is a really good idea. I want to hear your reviews
as peer AR System developers who might be using the Developer Studio..

 

The idea is really very simple and honestly inspired by an already existing
feature in the Remedy Developer Studio.

 

Currently when you are logged into multiple servers, and you open an object
list from one of the servers, it is possible to open the same object, if it
exists on the other servers you are logged on to. If you have never used
that feature, this

little video I created for the tips and tricks session of the WWRUG, should
help you understand how to use the feature.

PS: For some reason this video would not work on my FireFox browser but
worked on Safari, so in case you have a similar problem, consider an
alternate browser.

 

I suggested that they could extend this idea to other editing functions
besides just opening objects just like they have Open Selected to compliment
the action Open.

 

The other action that I suggested to them was Rename Selected to compliment
Rename on the current object list. This would save us quite a bit of
conflicts if we forgot to rename an object that we renamed in development
for whatever reasons, in other environments, as migrations would duplicate
the object.

 

Another action that could be built using the same idea is Delete Selected to
compliment Delete on the current object list. This again would mean deleted
objects would stay deleted.

 

Similarly an action Edit Selected to compliment Edit in the current object
list to edit multiple objects, if that whole list was present on another
server.

 

Personally I think these features if designed nicely would rock...

 

What do you'll think??

 

Cheers

Subject: RFE: Functions in the Developer Studio that I would love to see..
Importance: High

 

Listers,

 

The Developer Studio already has a number of functions that are really
awesome that you can't imagine another dev tool without..

 

While using these existing awesome features, I had ideas of how some
existing ideas could be applied in other areas. I have briefly documented
this in the ideas section of the BMC Developer Community.

 

Please review this idea I have for Renaming, Deleting, Editing
<https://communities.bmc.com/ideas/3586>  multiple objects when logged to
multiple servers that I have created in the BMC Communities upon the
suggestion of the AR System Developer Studio team that I talked with on the
evening with the engineering at WWRUG 2013. If you genuinely like this idea
<https://communities.bmc.com/ideas/3586> , please vote for it - if you have
suggestions please comment on it.

 

Please visit my idea <https://communities.bmc.com/ideas/3586>  at
https://communities.bmc.com/ideas/3586 and offer your honest opinions on
whether or not it would be useful to have this incorporated in a future
release of the Remedy Developer Studio..

 

Cheers

 

Joe
