In Perforce visual client how to link the depot view with the workspace view - p4v

so that when we move to a particular file in one view, it automatically navigates to the mapped file in the other view? I had used this before but forgot now how, and there is no menu item anywhere in p4v for doing this.

Switch to the workspace. In the depot view, right-click and then select "Restrict view -> Restrict to workspace view"
Hope this helps.

Netbeans is not showing source tab

Netbeans is not showing source tab, please help.
I had the same problem and I had to delete the Netbeans Cache and User Directory. Once I did it worked fine.
you will find the cach in the path: C:\Users"user_name"\AppData\Roaming\Netbeans
delete all files in this folder
It may be that for some reason the layout changed. I am not very familiar with NetBeans but I presume that there is an option to reset the layout under
Window -> Reset Windows
Hope this helps!
As of now you are viewing Project view. You have to click on Files then you will be able to see what you want to see. :)
or still not visible follow following steps :
User selects main menu Window.
User clicks menu item Reset Windows and all views are reset to their defaults.
Choose from IDE menu bar, Next to FILE---EDIT--VIEW---and then go to View option-- select show editor option
show "Editor Tool bar"(put tick mark to select)

eclipse egit: Menu item and keyboard shortcut for Team -> Show in History

Is there a way to get the git log, ie: "Team -> Show in History" appear as a menu item on the main menu bar and to have a shortcut for it?
I'd like this menu item/shortcut to work when selecting a project or project resource in Package Explorer.
You could use Shift+Alt+W (that brings up the Show In submenu) and then press H to activate the History entry.
Otherwise, you can also consider linking the History view to the selection by activating the toolbar icon with the two arrows in the History view.
The command "Team -> Show History" cannot be processed unless it's associated with a module or a folder.
That's why it's a right click menu option.
You should be able to bind the Show In (History) command to a key in the Preferences>General>Keys page. You have to select something before you execute it (like a git repo or a project in the explorer).

Detached windows in Eclipse, is this possible?

Is there a way (plugin) in Eclipse to open detached windows which can be put on separate monitors: e.g one monitor will have my source, second threads and variables? The feature is in IntelliJ.
Yes. From the "Window" menu select "New Window". You can also drag the tabs off of the main window and a new window with just that tab will be created.
If you want a window with just the source code by itself, dragging the tab with the source in it won't work. What you can do is create the new window, drag the source over and minimize any other existing tabs within the new window to essentially leave a "source code only" view. You should be able to save this as a perspective and name it "Editor Only". This is somewhat cumbersome to setup, but once you have the perspective saved it should be pretty easy to get in and out of.
This is available in Helios and possibly earlier versions.
You can right-click on the title of any "View" and choose "Detach", this way you won't need two mail windows.

How to open an eclipse view to Right Side Only

I have an eclipse view and whenever I open that view, I want it to default open in Right Side of the eclipse.
How to make this possible
while being in an eclipse perspective place the views in the locations you want. After exiting and reopening eclipse the views will remain in the positions you placed them in the respective perspective.
If you want to programatically position your view, right away when it is opened for the first time, you can create your own perspective, adn in that perspective you either include the view in the desired location, or you include a placeholder to define where the view should appear as soon as it's opened. See API for org.eclipse.ui.IPageLayout, method addPlaceholder.
If you don't create your own perspective, you may not be able to influence where your view is initially positioned. You can only manually position the view after it had been opened, and Eclipse will then remember this location in the workspace.

How do i configure the right click menu in the 'project explorer' view?

I installed a fresh eclipse and i have a problem : when i right click somewhere in the project explorer view, the menu is missing some links and some that i dont' want to see are there.
How can i modify that ?
Bonus question : i can't rename files, folders, classes, nothing. The 'rename' link in the toolbar (it doesn't appear in the right click menu !) is disabled.
Thanks
I can only answer your bonus question. Rename in Eclipse is only available in Navigator view. But you can use Refactor->Rename in other views as well. The bahavior is slighly different from normal Rename but most of the time, it is what you wanted.
