User Guide - MKS

Title Bar
MKS Visual Merge Interface
The title bar is the uppermost component of the application window. On
the left side, the title bar displays the name of the application and the
member name. On the right side, the title bar displays the standard
Windows buttons for minimizing, resizing, and closing the application
window.
Menu Bar
The menu bar is located directly below the title bar. Each menu contains
available commands. MKS Visual Merge has four menus in the menu bar:
File, Edit, View, and Help. The list of available commands varies depending
on the function you are performing.
Toolbar
Immediately below the menu bar is a toolbar that provides easy access to
the most commonly used MKS Visual Merge commands. Toolbar functions
are carried out by clicking the appropriate toolbar button. Point to a button
to display a ToolTip that contains a description for that button.
Located immediately below the toolbar buttons are display controls that
change what appears in the view panes. These controls are also available in
the View menu.
NOTE
The Ignore Whitespace, Ignore Case, and Ignore Blanks display controls can
only be adjusted before making changes to the Merge Result. Once you begin
to make changes, (merging or editing), the options become unavailable.
Difference Blocks is a list containing all of the difference blocks in the
revisions, including the type of difference (change, insertion, deletion,
and conflict), and the line numbers.
To move to a particular difference block, select the block from the
Difference Blocks list.
The selected difference block appears.
Ignore Whitespace ignores tab and white space throughout the lines in
the revisions.
Ignore Case ignores the type case when comparing the revisions.
