Copy/Overwrite/Compare: panel sides ignored/flipped

The behaviour described in the bug report is either by design, or would be far too complex/time-consuming to be changed

Copy/Overwrite/Compare: panel sides ignored/flipped

Post by *StatusQuo »

When copying a file in TC from left to right, before overwriting an existing file you now can compare the two files before overwriting (Button More Options / Compare).
Great feature, but unfortunately the compare function here ignores which file is on which side, so the file from the left panel in TC is shown in the right panel in Compare.

To reproduce:
- open 2 different dirs in TC
- create FILE.EXT on one side,
- copy it to the other side,
- edit/change one of the two files
- copy this file from left to right (direction is important)
=> in compare function the contents of the left file are displayed on the right side, the right file on the left side.
