Working with Compare Results

Depending on the display options selected before running the compare, the results are displayed in a list or a tree or both and are displayed side by side.

Navigating in List View

Compare results displayed in a list only show nodes that meet the compare criteria. From the Node menu you can select these options:

• Take — Copies a node to the Clipboard from which you can insert it, move it, reorder it, or paste its properties elsewhere.

• Go to Node — Takes you to the selected node in the tree view

• Show Filter Row — Opens a blank row that you can use to filter the list

• Properties — Displays the node properties on the Properties tab

Navigating in Tree View

On the Tree tab, marked nodes are displayed with blue check marks on the left side of the row.

Compare results displayed as marked nodes will show both hierarchy trees with a blue checkmark next to each node that meets the compare criteria.
