View Compare/Merge Session Filters

Filtering allows you to limit the types and numbers of items that appear in the upper pane.The list of available filters depends on the perspective you are using in the View Compare/Merge session.

StarTeam provides a set of predefined filters that are intended as starting points for you to create your own custom filters. Use the Filter list on the toolbar to view and apply predefined file filters.

You can create additional filters for the Merge Perspective and the Test Perspective. To access the Filters dialog box, right-click a column header in the upper pane of the Merge Perspective or Test Perspective and choose Filters. The Compare Perspective has two predefined filter lists, but you cannot create any additional filters for that perspective.

<Show Items With Differences>	Displays items from both the source and target views in the Compare Perspective that have differences.
