<p class="p_Normal">Display filters limit the view to certain comparison results. For example, you can pick <span class="f_Command">Show Differences</span> <img width="16" height="16" style="margin:0;width:16px;height:16px;border:none" src="favdiff.png"/> to hide all the matching files so that you can concentrate on the mismatches. The current display filter choice will be saved whenever you leave a session, unless that session is locked.</p>
<p class="p_Normal">Most of the session types have some sort of display filter implementation. The examples below are from a Folder Compare session.</p>
<p class="p_Normal">Right-click on the toolbar to pick one of three built-in ways to show display filters on the toolbar: <span class="f_Command">DropDown</span>, <span class="f_Command">Favorites</span> or <span class="f_Command">Toggles</span>. Or, pick <span class="f_Command">Toolbar Options</span> to create your own custom layout.</p>
<p class="p_Subtitle"><span class="f_Subtitle">DropDown layout</span></p>
<p class="p_Normal">DropDown is the default style for the toolbar, designed for simplicity and to save space on the toolbar.</p>
<p class="p_Normal"><img width="285" height="240" style="margin:0;width:285px;height:240px;border:none" src="toolbardropdown.png"/></p>
<p class="p_Normal">The buttons represent <span class="f_Command">Show All</span> <img width="16" height="16" style="margin:0;width:16px;height:16px;border:none" src="favall.png"/>, <span class="f_Command">Show Differences</span> <img width="16" height="16" style="margin:0;width:16px;height:16px;border:none" src="favdiff.png"/> and <span class="f_Command">Show Same</span> <img width="16" height="16" style="margin:0;width:16px;height:16px;border:none" src="favsame.png"/>. The dropdown on the middle button lets you pick a different combination display filter.</p>
<p class="p_Subtitle"><span class="f_Subtitle">Favorites layout</span></p>
<p class="p_Normal">The Favorites style includes various filter combinations on the toolbar.</p>
<p class="p_Normal"><img width="281" height="26" style="margin:0;width:281px;height:26px;border:none" src="toolbarfavorites.png"/></p>
<p class="p_Subtitle"><span class="f_Subtitle">Toggles layout</span></p>
<p class="p_Normal">Toggles represent the individual comparison states.</p>
<p class="p_Normal"><img width="143" height="26" style="margin:0;width:143px;height:26px;border:none" src="toolbartoggles.png"/></p>
<p class="p_Normal">Pick this mode when you want combinations that are not available with the other display filters. For example, the Toggles shown above will display <span class="f_Command">Left Orphans</span> and <span class="f_Command">Right Newer</span>, and nothing else.</p>
