Use the controls in this window to perform advanced selections in the folder comparison results list.
Selection type lists
There are two selection lists for a two-way folder comparison, and three for a three-way folder comparison. The lists represent columns in the folder comparison results list. Each entry in each list corresponds to a file or folder state in that column. Rows in the results list that contain a file or folder that match one or more of the checked states will be selected.
The states that can appear in each list are as follows:
| State | Description |
|---|---|
| File | Matches if the row contains a file in this column. |
| Folder | Matches if the row contains a folder in this column. |
| Unchanged | Matches if the row contains an unchanged file in this column. |
| Changed | Matches if the row contains a changed file in this column. |
| Inserted | Matches if the row contains an inserted file in this column. |
| Removed | Matches if the row contains a removed file in this column. |
| Newer File | Matches if the row contains a newer (changed) file in this column. |
| Absent | Matches if the row contains nothing in this column. |
| Resolved | Matches if the row contains a resolved file or folder in this column. |
The lists won’t necessarily contain all of the states listed above.
