You have executed a property comparison of projects and opened a project. Utilities > Revision control > Property comparison of projects > Show results of the properties comparison.
This dialog displays the results of a property comparison of projects. The data is read from the revision results list in which the results of the property comparison were saved. (This list is stored in the project database of the current project.) To enable a quick overview of the results, not all entries from the revision results list are shown. Only the number of entries specified in the project settings under Maximum number of displayed results is shown.
Overview of the main dialog elements:
The following columns are shown in the table (can be set via Popup menu > Configure representation):
- Object type: Shows the object type, for example, Function, Image file, etc.
- DT / Name: Shows the complete DT of the function or the name of the object. For connections, the source and target are displayed; for projects, the project name is shown including file path; for image files, the file name is shown with file path; and for hyperlinks, the designation is shown.
- Page of the object: Shows the page where differences were found.
- Kind of change: Shows whether the object was changed, deleted, or newly inserted.
- Property: Shows the changed property.
- Previous value: Shows the value of the property in the reference project.
- New value: Shows the value of the property in the current project.
- Part number [1]: Shows the first part entered at the function.
- Name of potential: Shows the name of the potential for connections to which the connection is connected.

To do this, mark the object and then select Popup menu > Synchronize selection. The corresponding lines in the list of results will be marked.
