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. For example, this tooltip indicates another user has an "exclusive checkout" on the variable.h file:

|
|
Stream depot: A depot where stream files are stored. | |
|
Spec depot: when enabled by your
Helix server
administrator, a spec depot stores the history of changes to
Helix server
specifications, such as changelists |
|
|
Graph depot: A depot for storing files in a repo  , which uses the graph model associated with git instead of the "classic" Perforce file revision model. |
