  2. Code compare should remember when I e.g. use JavaScript syntax highlighting for Typescript files, or Java for Groovy files. So the problem that not all languages are supported isn't too bad.

  4. Right now Undo operation is scoped in context of currently focused panel

    That does not work at all with "Copy Left" - "Copy Right" feature, because when I use them - it changes not focused panel content, but another one.
    So it's quite hard to undo "Copy Left/Right" operation

  5. On one hand DEVART has got a very powerful tool to control DB access. On the other hand, you have got a tool to compare files. Why not to allow the user to fetch ... his text from a DB (different DBs) and to write the merged information back into one, the other or a third DB.

  6. When comparing a file against its base in version control, it makes sense for the base pane to be read-only. This way it makes it obvious which file is editable. Same with merging - the mine and theirs should be read-only and only the result file should be editable.

  7. Enable support for comparing files provided the path is URI.

    If I want to compare files on web, at first I had to download them manually and then compare them.
    The same applies for FTP or other protocols.
    If the file is located on local disk, then it would be fine to use "file" scheme.

    Suppose I want to compare file on web and file on local disk:
    - http://www.example.com/bower.json
    - file:///C:/temp/bower.json

  8. In other tools there is an option to create backups when saving files you have manually merged during file comparison.

    The settings allow specifying:
    - the directory to save the backup files (global directory, original file directory, etc.)
    - the file extension used (.bak, ...)
    - append timestamp

    i find this helpful when doing standalone file comparisons that are not controlled by source control.

  10. I'd really like to have a localized version of CodeCompare. In my case a German translation would be fine.

  17. Merged with idea "Detect moved block inside WinForms designer code".
    Neolisk wrote:
    WinForms designer code pieces can be moved around at random, and this is beyond developer's control. It does not add any real difference to the code, so would be nice if CodeCompare could ignore moved blocks in those cases.

  18. Every now and then i want to compare 2 methods, 2 blocks of text, or basically any 2 parts of the same or different files.

    I would appreciate a function which lets me right-click a method/class or a selected block of text, and choose "Select left" and "Select right" just as i can compare 2 arbitrary files in the Windows Explorer.

    CodeCompare would only compare the selected class/method/block of text; not the entire files.

  19. I am customizing a large open source project and mark all my updates
    with a special marker (like "Added by me").

    When a new version of the project is released, I need to merge all my
    changes from the previous version to the new. If I compare all files, I
    see all changes made by the project (which are a lot). I only want to
    see changes to files where I have made modifications and added my "Added by me" marker.

  20. Add a Taskbar/Application Icon for ccsa.exe (CodeCompare GUI). Currently a default application icon is shown which makes it hard to distinguish between other tools without custom icons.
