Understanding the XML Comparison Summary
You can see the summary of a particular XML file comparison in two places:
- The XML comparison summary
dialog represents the numbers of text blocks that are same, different,
added, and deleted in the second file relative to the first. Additionally,
in three-way comparison, the comparison summary shows the number of conflicting
differences.
- The three status bar comparison summary panels (four in
three-way comparison) in the right-hand-side of status bar. The '-' and '+'
icons drawn in the first two panels, aided by the consistent use of colors, and
the tooltips, reinforce and communicate the difference types.
As the screenshot below illustrates hovering with the mouse over a summary panel
displays a tooltip with more readable presentation of the panel's information.
