Altap Salamander Support Forums

In the file comparator, especially in hex mode many differences tend to be clustered, with matches in between, and only the cluster, not each individual difference is of interest. To step through all of them with next/previous difference is usually tedious, so i just scroll and click, to restart stepping through differences from that point.
Unlike most other diff/merge tools, in Salamander this only works when you clicked a difference, not when you clicked any other position in the file. At times, this makes it unnecessarily difficult to restart, because you need to search for the next/previous difference visually by scrolling instead of letting the machine do it.
Please support repositioning difference stepping anywhere in the file.

File Comparator Ability to set Carat Location .

I missed that (admittedly, I did not even search for it).
I am still glad I posted this request since yours easily could be considered as withdrawn (Here's a problem--here's a solution to it--checked off). As I stated above, I know you can reposition be clicking a spot marked as a difference, but why do I have to search for one, when the computer can do it?

Have you tried using keyboard (PageDown or Alt+Down) to find the next difference faster?

Nevertheless, it seems that the feature you propose would be helpful.
