Error description

• When creating a new view in IBM Rational ClearCase
  ClearTeamExplorer the dialogue may indicate incorrect view types
  as being available. That is, automatic and web views are
  available for views being created under "ClearCase Local" or
  dynamic and snapshot if the view creation is started from a
  stream under the WAN connection. This is ONLY seen if the same
  stream is chosen under "ClearCase Local" then under the WAN
  connection or vice-versa.
  
  Steps to reproduce:
  1. select a stream under ⠜ClearCase Local⠝
  2. right-click and select ⠜Create View⠦⠝, the dialogue box
  to select Dynamic or Snapshot views.
  3. select the same stream (Eg: ⠜Projct1_Int⠝) under
  ⠜ClearCase [http://CCRCWANSERVER/ccrc]⠝ and right-click and
  select ⠜Create View⠦⠝, the dialogue box to select Dynamic
  or Snapshot views. However,the view creation dialogue box should
  have web and automatic view options.
  
  The same is seen in reverse if initially selecting the stream
  under [http://CCRCWANSERVER/ccrc], it shows options for web and
  automatic views.
  Selecting the same stream under ⠜ClearCase Local⠝, the view
  options are web and automatic views.
  
  WORKAROUND:
  First, select a different stream under "ClearCase Local" or
  under the WAN connection, then choose the original stream again,
  creating the view will now show the correct available types.
