My settings file is synced between desktop and laptop using OneDrive.
Perforce.ClientName is in the settings file which means it is always wrong when I swap between machines.
When I go to edit a file, it pops up an error (that overflows the message box) about the wrong perforce client:
2020-11-25 09_25_42-AllProjects_win sln - 10x

It then allows me to continue editing the file. I fix Perforce.ClientName in the settings file, but there is no way to manually do a check-out (that I am aware of?) and attempting to save the file results in a Read-Only error. Clicking on the red lock icon forces the file to be read-only instead of checking it out.

Some features that would help with this would be

  1. Allowing Perforce.ClientName to be part of a local settings file that is not synced.
  2. Having a menu option to do a perforce edit on the current file.
  3. Retrying a check-out when saving a read-only file.

  • if a file fails to check out and is read-only then try again on save
  • added "Perforce Open for Edit" menu items (in main menu and file tab menu)
