The renamed node compare is the same as the structure compare, but it treats renamed nodes as being the same for comparison purposes.
For example, if Hierarchy 1 in a compare includes nodes A, B and C, and hierarchy 2 contains the same nodes but with node C renamed to CC, then the renamed node compare does not identify any differences between the two hierarchies. A structure compare regards nodes C and CC as different if the differences option is selected.
A renamed node compare returns nodes from each hierarchy that are similar or different based on the type of comparison being performed. The results can be displayed as two lists, two marked trees, or both.
