[p4] Indicator for Modified Files on Eclipse?

Umm...I tried to manually team->refresh on a file, the
status is still "check out" although I have already
revert the changes back.  When I did team->diff
file(s) against depot, it said that there was no
difference.  But the check-out sign is still there.

Am I missing something?

Thanks in advance.


Cheers,
Hei
