Description Vladimir Voskresensky 2016-03-05 01:16:51 UTC

When Line Wrap is turned ON then only left panel of diff view is wrapping lines while right side panel doesn't wrap.
This inconsistency cause usability issue to see changed line, because changed lines are not in sync anymore when scroll diff view

working line-wrapping

Comment 2 Ondrej Vrabec 2016-04-01 13:38:33 UTC

Seems to work for me in dev builds. But I think wrapping in diff tools should be turned off. It does not make any sense to me, it's very hard to realize the actual differences with the line-wrapping on.
Milo, could that be turned-off for diff views somehow?

Interesting: if I use Tools->Diff to compare two files => both panes are not wrapped
