Pending changes shows items checked out in other project


Hi,

I sometimes encounter the following problem. I have in the TFS source code db the following structure

$projectRoot/ProjectA

$projectRoot/ProjectB

These are mapped to the local drive as follows:

c:\projectRoot/projectA

c:\program files\common files\...\projectB

When I have both solutions open in VS sometimes I see in the pending changes window files from the other project.

So if I have files checked out in projectA, the pending changes window in project B will list those files plus the files checked out in project B. Sometimes clicking refresh on the pending changes windows also results in this problem.

Is this a known problem - is there a solution.

Thanks

Donal

The pending changes toolwindow has a toolbar button (to the left of the workspace combo box) called "Filter by solution". If you toggle this on (such that a square is drawn around the button) you should only see pending changes in the currently opened solution (and all of its projects). If "Filter by solution" is not on then you see all pending changes in the workspace.
