The red icon indicates that the file associated with the finding has been modified after the code analysis was run. As a result, the finding location within the file may not be up-to-date or the finding may have already been resolved.
Filtering Findings by File

- If not already open, choose Parasoft> Show View> Findings from the IDE main menu.
Click the Link with Editor button on the Findings view menu bar.
The Findings view will be refreshed to show only findings for the active file.
