show locks without scanning for them

My development team frequently works together on projects and to prevent conflicts on file types that can't be merged (such as flash files) we use locks. It is rather inconvenient to scan for locks every time we want to start work on a file - is there a way already or could you add a feature that shows a file is locked without having to scan for locks?

A file might have a lock icon next to it in the client when another user has it locked. It would be even more ideal if it listed both that it was locked and who locked it.

Hello,

Thank you for your feature request.
We already have plans to improve the locking support and this will be done in one of the next releases of Syncro SVN Client. I've added you to the list of users to be notified when this feature will be available.

Do not hesitate to contact us if you have any other suggestion or feature request.

Best regards,

Hello,

Starting with Syncro SVN Client 7.0, file locks in the Working Copy view are now presented using graphic symbols, which allow you to rapidly identify files with active, broken or stolen locks. Also, after synchronizing your working copy with the repository, you can see the current lock state of files in the repository, including those locked by other users, without needing to scan for them explicitly.

Also, Repositories view presents the existing file locks when browsing repository content, allowing you to lock or unlock files directly in the repository (without a working copy), using actions available in this view.

Best Regards,
Florin Avram
