Select File - Properties - Workspace (or File - Workspace Properties in the Launchbar) and click the General tab to do all of the following activities:
View or change the Groove version requirements for the workspace
Enable or disable automatically downloading the workspace on all computers
You can view all of the following information about the selected workspace:
Version: The version of Groove in which the workspace was created.
Size: The current size of the workspace on disk.
Template: The workspace template version number.
Created by: Name of the person who created the workspace.
Created on: Date the workspace was created.
Requirements: The minimum version of Groove required for access to the all workspace and tool features.
File sharing properties: For file sharing workspaces, the Properties dialog box includes a More link that displays additional information, such as the path of the root folder currently being synchronized, excluded files and file extensions, and the current synchronization status.
To change the version requirement for a workspace, select the version you want from the drop-down menu.
Every workspace has a Groove version requirement for tools, which is initially set when the workspace is created. For example, if you create a workspace and select "Groove 3.0" as the Groove version (the default option), this means all tools that you or any other member adds to the workspace are supported for all members running Groove 3.0 or later. Members running an earlier version of Groove will get prompted to update if they select tools added to the workspace that require the later version. Additionally, invitees to the space who are running an earlier version may be required to update Groove before accepting the invitation.
Workspace managers can change the Groove version number so that members can add newer versions of tools to the workspace. However, note the following details about changing version requirements:
You can only increase the version requirement for a workspace. This also means that once you increase the version requirement, you cannot set it back to an earlier version.
Members running an earlier version of Groove may get prompted to upgrade Groove when later versions of tools are added.
Workspace managers can add or edit text in the Description text box. Note that this text box is shared with the description text box in any Welcome Page tool in the workspace. That is, any edits made in the workspace properties appear in the Welcome Page tool, and vice versa.
If you log into your Groove account on multiple computers (or plan to do so in the future), you might want to check the option to "Download automatically onto all computers." If enabled, the workspace will be automatically downloaded when you log in to the account on another computer.
