How does the model comparison mark items in the modeling area?
The model comparison marks changed items in the modeling area in different colors to make the changes clearly visible.
Gray border:
Items that occur in both models but have changed and are thus different.
Red border in the first comparison model:
Items that only occur in the first comparison model.
Items from the first comparison model that cannot be identified in the second comparison model. For example, this is the case if multiple object occurrences exist in the first comparison model that are missing in the second comparison model.
Blue border in the second comparison model:
Items that only occur in the second comparison model.
Items from the second comparison model that cannot be identified in the first comparison model. For example, this is the case if multiple object occurrences exist in the second comparison model that are missing in the first comparison model.
Information icons () are shown for the differences in the comparison models. Positioning the mouse pointer over one of these icons for a little while displays information about the difference.
The marks are only active for as long as the model comparison tab is open, that is they are not saved.
