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:

Folders		(Blue folder) A folder in the Helix Server depot
		(Yellow folder) A folder in your client workspace
		`D1` is a folder of the `//flow/D1` stream in the stream depot named `flow`.
		A folder that maps to a Graph repo
Depots		Classic depot A repository of Helix Core files that is not streams-based. Uses the Perforce file revision model, not the graph model. The default depot name is depot. See also default depot, stream depot, and graph depot.
		Remote depot: if configured by your Helix Server administrator, a remote depot maps a portion of another Helix Server repository as if it were a depot. Typically used to enable you to import and export third-party files without providing outsiders with access to your Helix Server.
		Stream depot: A depot where stream A branch with built-in rules that determine which changes to propagate to files in a stream depot, and in what order. A stream specification defines a stream. A user creates a stream spec by using the 'p4 stream' command or in P4V with File > New Stream. In P4V, stream specs are visible in the Streams Graph and the Streams tab. files are stored. (Stream specs are represented in the Stream Graph (see Stream hierarchy in the Stream Graph) and the Streams tab (see Viewing and adding tabs).
		Spec depot: when enabled by your Helix Server administrator, a spec depot stores the history of changes to Helix Server specifications, such as changelists The changes to files or stream specifications along with metadata, such as the list of changed files, their version numbers, who submitted the changelist to the depot, and the submitter's description of the changes. A changelist is the unit of versioned work. See also atomic change transaction and changelist number..
		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.
Workspaces		Workspace associated with a classic depot
		Workspace associated with a stream depot
		Workspace when stream spec is checked out for edit
		Workspace associated with a graph depot, which might or might not be a hybrid workspace A client workspace that supports both repos of type graph (see "Git Connector") and the classic Helix Core file revision model.
