File Lock Search Refining

The File Lock search function provides a prompt allowing you to narrow your search. However, the "File" field which allows you to browse a repository workspace for a specific file is misleading. It grants the ability to choose a folder as well as a specific file. However if you select a folder, the search does not return a list of locked files within that folder. It does not return anything. If a file is selected that you know is locked, it will return that file, but this seems to defeat the purpose of checking what is locked. In a multi-user environment, it can be critical to narrow a search down to one folder when dealing with multiple Rhapsody projects within a component.

    The EWM RFE Review board looked at this and decided to keep it on the Backlog as an uncommitted candidate for a future release.
