From @pnedev on March 13, 2016 0:45 Hi Yaron, One question regarding
Why the current file should be compared to the previous and not to the next file? Could you please explain? BR, |
From @Yaron10 on March 13, 2016 2:16 Hello Pavel, I was thinking of the following scenarios:
Why would you prefer "current vs. next"? Best regards. |
From @pnedev on March 13, 2016 9:19 Hi Yaron,
No, no, nothing that "profound", just a "human" logic :) - If you have several files opened and you switch between tabs and later you decide to compare two adjacent files my "feeling" as user would be to switch to the first (left-most in the tabs order) of the files and start the comparison from it. I would assume then that it would be compared to the next file, right after it. If I'd like to compare two files immediately after I open them in Notepad++ they will be at the end of the tabs list (I've just opened them) and then they will be compared no matter if I've selected the first or the last. BR, |
From @Yaron10 on March 13, 2016 19:22 Hello Pavel, Thanks for the explanation. Your argument makes sense. However, I still think that the "natural" and more common workflow is "current vs. prev". Would you like me to change that? Not recommended. :) :) BTW - if "next" was always activated when another file was closed, we could shorten the code. Best regards. |
From @pnedev on March 13, 2016 23:24 Hi Yaron, The change is merged to master, good job! BR |

When comparing In One-View mode, the current file and the previous file should be compared.
Also, the current file should always get the top (or left) view.
NOTE:
This fix (current at top) does not address "Compare to last Save".
I've never used "Compare to Git".
Replace
with
and add the following function
Thank you.
