I often use a test directory to pull out older version files for diff. Some of our older projects use TLib source control and this is just easier to do. Anyway do a diff on a files with the following:
Setup a directory c:\some path\project\ with file.c and file2.c and c:\some path\project\test\ with file.c
- Open diff
- path 1: c:\some path\project\file.c
- path 2: c:\some path\project\test\file.c
- hit ok
- close it
- reopen the diff window
- path 1 is already selected
- press end to move to the end of line
- ctrl-shift left x2 to select the file name
- type file2.c
- path 2 removed file.c from the path. Awesome, that's helpful!
- tab x3 to get to path 2
- press end to move to the end of line
- ctrl-shift left to select the test\ portion of the path to overwrite
- I want to select a file not in the test folder
- press any alphanumeric key
- The previously selected test\ is not overwritten as it should be but requires you to re-select the test folder to overwrite
This happens in version 18 also.
