diffDirs should allow to compare multiple file pairs

[moisesalvarez]

Hello,
Currently, diffDirs launches a diffFile window with both files when they are selected and double clicked from the file list.
But when you open another file pair, the initial diffFile closes and opens the new file pair comparison.
In my case I would like to be able to open multiple diffFile instances so I can see multiple comparison.
Request: It should be possible to enable a flag (checkbox) in the diffDIrs configuration so users can open multiple file pair comparisons (diffFile's) or just a single one (as it now behaves).

Thank you in advance.

Hello,

Multiple instances of the Diff Files dialog box (resulting from double-clicking on file pairs with differences presented after a directory comparison) cannot be created.
For your case, an alternative would be to use the Save Results as HTML option from the File menu of the Diff Files dialog box.
The HTML files thus generated can then be viewed in your favorite Internet browser.
Note, however, that in the HTML formatted comparison reports generated that way, only the blocks with the differences between the 2 files are presented and the contents of the files are not rendered in their entirety.

A second alternative would be to use the Generate HTML Report for Directory Comparison tool (from Tools / Comparison Tools menu).
By checking the Generate additional file comparison reports option, comparison reports for file pairs with changes are automatically created and can be viewed in separate tabs in your Internet browser.
