This tab lists all objects of some particular type - tables, views, etc. Allows to identify whether some object is new, changed or unchanged. Note that for tables and views it does not provide information about data/content changes, only about object definitions (like changed column data type for tables or changed select statement for views).

Name column has a hyperlink that opens table structure diff tab for tables in the Pro version and text diff tab with object definition script for all other cases. Object name cell can also contain some additional action buttons for tables and views:

opens text diff with a table pseudo-SQL script
opens query result diff with select top 1000 records statement for the given table/view
opens data diff for the given table/view
opens data diff for the given table/view filtered only to new and changed records

Show text preview in the bottom

When bottom text preview is active, it contains two more actions:

Show text preview line totals
Show text preview selected line

At the top of the object list it shows changes summary for each side: total count of objects, new, changed and new+changed count. It also shows the number of selected records.

Also the top panel has a small quick filter button that allows to filter object list by name. This can be very convenient for large object lists. This action is also available with Alt+F keyboard shortcut.

At the bottom panel it shows information about selected object - either object name with create/update date/time or text preview. Note that bottom text preview is currently available for all object types except indexes.
