Make event sync settings persistent

[oelgoetz]

Hello,

the synchronized scrolling when using webpage-diff is very good! It's really great that you done it !
(#2111).

I use it extensively by launching it from a self-written C# application using the following arguments: file1 file2 /s /u /t Webpage.

Because of the /s option every diff opens in a new tab.
However I found that the settings in the event-sync comboBox are not persistent: One has to activate at least the topmost check box to use the sync feature.
Is it possible to make these settings persistent - at least in the same session of the WinMerge application?

IMHO it would be sufficient when every new tab that is started in /t Webpage mode uses the same settings as they were used in the last tab opened in that mode.

Thank you for your report.
It is simply a bug that the selection in the Location Pane's Event Sync dropdown menu is not persistent.
As a workaround, if you set it in the Webpage → Event Sync menu as shown below, it will become a permanent setting, so please set it there.

With commit 8374769, Event Sync settings are now saved when the window is closed.
