To Display the Merge Results Pane Above or Below the Contributor Panes


To change where Diff Merge displays the merge results pane:

  1. Click Tools > Options.
  2. In the Options dialog box, click the Display tab.
  3. Under Merge Results Pane:
    • To display the merge results pane above the contributor panes, select Show Above Contributor Panes.
    • To display the merge resultspane below the contributor panes, select Show Below Contributor Panes.

Note: Changes made to this option are saved when you quit Diff Merge.

If you are not merging, Diff Merge does not display a merge results pane. However, even if this pane is not displayed, you can still set the option and the changes apply to the subsequent Diff Merge session. That is, if the subsequent Diff Merge session is a merge, the location of the merge results pane is affected.
