To reorder contributor panes (Windows)

About this task

You can change the default order of contributor panes.

Procedure

  1. Click Edit > Properties.
  2. In the Properties window in the Contributors included in comparison/merge pane:
    1. Select the contributor to move.
      Note: Be careful to click the name, not the check box. Clicking the check box may exclude the contributor from (or add it to) the comparison.
    2. Click Move Up or Move Down until that contributor is displayed in the desired location.

Results

Note: If you reorder contributor panes, Diff Merge restarts the comparison. If you are merging, you cannot reorder contributor panes.
