Compare Versions#

The “Compare Versions” button in the tools menu allows you to visually track changes between the current and previous versions of projects.

When this button is clicked, the “Compare Versions” window opens.

Project selection fields for comparison:

1. “First Project” field with the “Open” button — allows you to select the base (left) version of the project for comparison.
2. “Second Project” field with the “Open” button — allows you to select the compared (right) version of the project.

Checkbox group “Comparison Options”:

• “Compare diagram composition” checkbox — checks for addition/removal of diagrams;
• “Compare diagram variables” checkbox — checks for changes in variables;
• “Compare block versions” checkbox — checks for updates to block versions;
• “Compare relationships between blocks” checkbox — checks for changes in relationships between blocks;
• “Show only differences” checkbox — displays only changed elements, hiding matches;
• “Compare project properties” checkbox — checks for changes in project properties;
• “Compare block composition” checkbox — checks the composition of blocks in diagrams;
• “Compare block property values” checkbox — checks block properties;
• “Compare external files and links” checkbox — checks all paths to external files and other dependencies;
• “Ignore differences in empty values” checkbox — excludes empty values from comparison.

“Type” dropdown list with filter values that allow you to filter comparison results by categories: “All”, “Project”, “Project Properties”, “Diagrams”, “Diagram Variables”, “Blocks”, “Block Versions”, “Block Properties”, “Relationships”, “External Files and Links”.

Below are the buttons:

• “Compare” — starts the analysis with the selected parameters;
• “Save Report” — exports the results to a file.

At the bottom of the “Compare Versions” window is a comparison results table with the following columns:

• “Status” — type of change (added, removed, modified);
• “Category” — area of difference (project, project properties, diagrams, etc.);
• “Diagram” — name of the diagram (with extension) where the difference was found;
• “Element” — name of the element for which a difference was found;
• “Property” — modified property of the element;
• “Value on the left” — value in the first project;
• “Value on the right” — value in the second project;
• “Comments” — additional explanations for the found differences.

The “Cancel” button closes the window without saving.

Full Block Check#

The “Full Block Check” button in the tools menu allows you to perform a full check of block properties throughout the project.

Before performing a full block check, a confirmation dialog will appear.

To perform a full check of block properties in the current diagram, click the icon under the “Full Block Check” button and select “Only in the current diagram”.

Remove Unused Variables#

The “Remove Unused Variables” button allows you to find and delete unused variables.

To remove unused variables only in the current diagram, you need to click the icon under the “Remove Unused Variables” button and select “Only in the current diagram”.

When you click the “Remove Unused Variables” button, a corresponding window opens to select unused variables from the list that need to be deleted.

If there are no unused variables, the list will be empty.

Compile Code Call Blocks#

The “Compile Code Call Blocks” button allows you to compile all code call blocks in the project. This action speeds up the operation of these blocks.

To compile code call blocks only in the current diagram, you need to click the icon under the “Compile Code Call Blocks” button and select “Only in the current diagram”.
