Maybe, it's a good idea to

jump automatic to the next difference

after one of the "Copy Left to Right" or "Copy Right to Left" button is pressed.

Now, the cursor still remain at the end of the line.


Best wishes,

I have considered this, but then you don't see the result of the copy operation.

Thanks for the answer.

Maybe a checkbox [you have enough space on the top bar] or internal command into wincmd.ini file, can be a solution.
Let me choice. PLS!

I work both with an external and internal compare tools. For plain text I prefer the internal one.
Because 'Compare by Content' is a tool, I think it's important to improve the speed of processing. Maybe for advances users, when users will have enough trust.

Best wishes,

Support+ - if it's optional.

Especially during the beta test not seeing the results would be quite bad...

If you see result before of copy operation (in other panel), you do not need to see it repeatedly after.

Also maybe add click with Shift?

Sure, I'd like to see the results.

For making sure having selected the correct positions in the source panel, and the result is as expected.
If this feature gets implemented, then only optional please.

Hint/workaround:
You can use Alt-Cursor_down to jump to the next difference.
If you copy the text passages with Alt-Cursor_left and Alt-Cursor_right, this is just one keystroke away.
