Re: WDSCI 6.X Compare

[AGlauser@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

Hi Chris,

Give this a shot: create a filter which contains both the files you want 
to compare.  Then highlight them both (by Ctrl+Click), then right click 
and choose Compare With->Each Other.  This is how I get a side-by-side 
compare in WDSc 5.1.2.  I don't find it works quite as well as the other 
method though - maybe it's just me, but it seems that the side-by-side 
method has more trouble with minor differences like two blank lines 
between code lines instead of one blank line and that sort of thing.

Good luck,
Adam

[WDSCI-L] WDSCI 6.X Compare






>From the help:

"Comparing files: To compare a currently opened member to  another
member, click Edit > Compare > Compare from the  menu bar. You can
also select two items in the Remote Systems view by holding  down the
Ctrl key and clicking the two items. Right-click and select  Compare
With > Each Other. Both members will be invoked side  by side, with
changes highlighted."

So, I was hopping the compare changed in 6.0, but I still see the
compare in one view. Is there a setting I'm missing to make them "side
by side"? IE, lilke CODE/400's compare.
