Version: 3.4 (using KDE KDE 3.5.8) Installed from: Ubuntu Packages OS: Linux When I have a block of changes, when one line for example changes the content, another line is added, and the line after the new line also have some changes, things appears as one block of changes without any indication what have changes at all. POC: Original: 3*1W<x>_Target-specific options (targets) A*1W<x>_Target-specific options (targets) P*1W<x>_Target-specific options (targets) 3*2Wb_Create a bundle instead of a library (Darwin) P*2Wb_Create a bundle instead of a library (Darwin) p*2Wb_Create a bundle instead of a library (Darwin) 3*2WB_Create a relocatable image (Windows) A*2WB_Create a relocatable image (Windows, Symbian) Old: 3*1W<x>_Win32-like target options 3*2WB_Create a relocatable image 3*2WB<x>_Set Image base to Hexadecimal <x> value The result will be only that the whole block was changed, but nothing more.
What do you expect? Can you provide a mockup of how it should behave? Thanks. P.S: Please, try it on the new KDE 4 version.
I think the point here is that Kompare will only bolden individual changed characters on changes keeping the line count the same. But this is normal, the Levenshtein comparison used works on lines, there's no way to guess which line is a changed version of which other line when the block is completely different. Computers are not humans and even less fortune tellers, sorry.
