Dear oXygen Team,

I am trying to compare directories/files with the diff tool and I would like to ignore the xml-declaration at the beginning of the documents:

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

. Is this possible?
I have tried to control it via settings (see image), but it didn't work out.

Many Thanks!
Lou

Hello,

Unfortunately we do not have an option that allows you to ignore the XML declaration, and you cannot use XPath to match the xml declaration.

Best Regards,
