All of my pending changelists have turned from red to black. What does this indicate? I am running Rev. P4V/NTX64/2017.1/1491634
If it's related, I cannot unlock files or edit the changelists.
IIRC the iconography for pending changelists is:
red changelist: current workspace
blue changelist: another workspace
I'd figure black changelist means there is no current workspace? I don't think I've ever opened the pending changelist tab without a workspace selected (since you can't very well work on files with no workspace...)
I found the following documentation: P4V User Guide (See "Using P4V" > "About P4V Icons")
Black: Pending changelist in another workspace. (Inferred! Read below)
Red: Pending changelist with open files.
Blue: Pending changelist with no open files.
Frustratingly, there was no official documentation about black icons - but I have found that the meaning seems to correlate to "another workspace". This would make sense if you didn't have a workspace selected for all icons to show up as black.
Not sure how it changed, but I didn't have a workspace selected.

I just wonder if the UI (P4V) can provide the information from this command?

Thanks for anything
P4V used this feature at one point for a "workspace overview" tab that showed, among other things, what changelist you were synced to, but that no longer exists AFAIK. You can, however, run cstat from a "custom tool" and see its output in the log pane.
I get this error while attempting to undo multiple revisions.
c:\path\to\directory\...#4592,#head - no revision(s) above that revision
I'm trying to get back to a specific revision, the one prior to #4592, undoing the 7 revisions that have happened since then.
My steps: I'm right-clicking the directory in question in P4V, selecting Undo Changes, then Undo all changes from a selected point to the most recent version, and putting in 4592 in the Undo all changes beginning from field. I hit submit, and I get the error.
Any idea what's up?
Perforce undo error: "no revision(s) above that revision"
What ultimately worked was in the Undo all changes beginning from field, selecting changelist rather than revision.
Recently I updated my Android Studio to 2.0 preview 4. The files which I visit are marked blue. Is there any significance to this change? How do I change back to white color as it's more readable than the intense blue color.
The blue color refers to git integration. The docs say the files are in blue, that have changed since last check-in.
Most of SO's rules are based on Google SEO, so I have to add here that there are other colors that mean other things. If I do not, someone will come along and say that my answer does not meet guidelines and specifications.

Okay, since I was new to the android studio interface earlier, I had this stupid doubt. Anyway I figured it out.
All the file names appears in blue color if your project is connected to the github, else they appear white.
You can change the whole theme, that will solve your issue. You can find some themes here: https://github.com/sdvoynikov/color-themes
I'm using Visual Studio 2012, linked up to TFS 2012 for source control.
I've just branched some code, but after creating the branch files it told me I don't have 'Manage Branch' permission.
Not an issue, I can sort that, but my Google skills are failing me when it comes to working out exactly what this little purple 'T' icon means in the source explorer window.
I presume it's a pending change?
LATER THAT DAY : After sorting the permissions out, I checked the new branch in ok and the icon disappeared, but I'd still like to know what it meant, and how to identify any other icons that might appear.
It's just the new VS2012 icon for a pending Branch action. If you look closely, it's not a 'T' but actually an upwards facing split arrow. A larger version of the icon can be seen if you look at the File -> Source Control -> Branching and Merging -> Branch menu item.
Normally you won't see this since branch actions are usually performed server side. In your case since you didn't have permissions it was tracked as a pending branch request, and cleared once your permission problem was resolved.
When you check in your new branch the purple icon will disappear.
The purple T symbol will be shown next to all files in a newly created branch that has pending changes (the branch is created but not checked in). I assume this is the 'pending change' indicator at source control or branching level.
I am new to P4V (perforce) while working with this, i cannot see the default folder in pending tab as i cannt drag any files for editing.
Thanks
Have you created a workspace? Open workspaces tab > right click.
Also make sure your connection is set up properly.
