At the end of the document comparison, the Compare Documents: Results dialog box appears and the two parts are shown in tiled windows. The dialog box lists the following items in a tree format:
Part, Assembly, or Drawing Properties (if the compared documents were the same file type)
NOTES:
Only parameters with different values are displayed in the Compare Documents: Results dialog box.
When you compare two parts (including multibody parts), and Compare Documents finds differences between the parts, you can select any of the following check boxes to perform additional operations: Compare faces, Compare volumes, or Compare features. When you compare two assemblies, you can select Compare volumes.
When you compare two different document file types, only the properties common to both documents are displayed, which include File Properties and Document Properties.
When the comparison is complete, you can select Keep current color on close to save the colors of modified and unique faces. If this option is cleared, the original part colors appear when you close the Compare Documents: Results dialog box.
Click any node in the tree to see its parameters in the Details box. The box contains four columns:
Parameter. Type of parameter
Document1 name. Value of the parameter in Document1
Document2 name. Value of the parameter in Document2
Remarks. Additional information
Drag
in the lower-right corner to resize the
dialog box, if necessary to view the columns.
Click Save Report to save the results
in an HTML report. The Compare Documents:
Save Report dialog box appears. For more details, see Saving Reports.
View Synchronization
The views in the graphics areas of the two parts are synchronized. When you change the view of one part, the view of the other part updates.
This feature is active when the Compare Documents: Results dialog box is present. There is no explicit control to enable or disable view synchronization.
