Feature Request: Merge differences in locally opened program window

[braykov]

Hi,
version 10's most liked feature (at least in our team) is the announcing when somebody else has changed the code I am working on.
There is a popup that has the choice to view differences.
What we would like also is an option to merge back some of the diffs into the editor I am working on. This of course would require a merge tool (we use WinMerge) as the one shipped with PLD only allows for viewing.
This should be also available with the 4 options given with the Compare To right-click menu.

I have added this to the list of enhancement requests.

Note that you can configure WinMerge as your difference viewer (Tools > Preferences > Tools / Differences).

you can configure WinMerge as your difference viewer

Yes, I know I can configure it. I have done so a long time ago. But when I merge some differences and hit Save, they are not reflected in the PLD window.
I mentioned this because you will have this as an issue: you provide PLD isntallation with some non-pro version of a diff tool which cannot make merges and changes to documents.
So if you do add the feature (please, please, do ) for adding merges back in the editor, you should provide a diff tool that can actually provides do merging and saving (not just viewing diffs).
