Home tab

  • Opened from: N\A (always shown, default application tab)
  • Applicable tab-specific toolbar actions:
    • Refresh object definitions and diff results
    • Export to Excel
    • Show all, new and changed, new, changed objects
  • Applicable object types: all

That's the initial application tab. It is used to open databases and to get a summary about all database objects. Note that it does not provide information about data/content changes, only about object definitions.

for Cross-DBMS, home tab

Tab is splinted in two parts, each of them represents a database being compared. Each part shows name and server name of the loaded database and allows the following actions:

  • Open database - opens Open database(s) dialog to load database object definitions to the given side
  • Refresh - reload currently loaded database - update its definitions and re-compare with other side
  • click on object type name: Opens object list tab for the given object type (all objects)
  • click on object count: Opens object list tab for the given object type filtered to objects representing this count
  • small batch data diff buttons : for tables and views you can open batch data diff tab filtered for tables or views respectively

At the bottom there is a 'Recent databases' collapsible section. It shows last database pairs that were opened. Note that if you're running multiple application instances in parallel then one application can overwrite recent files data saved by another application instance. Maximum number of recent pairs is 10 for Pro and 3 for Free. Each file pair has the following actions:

  • Open both databases
  • Open this database in the left panel
  • Open this database in the right panel

Free version limitations:

  • Reduced number of loaded and shown object types: only Table definitions and Views
  • Batch data diff buttons are not available
  • No Excel export
  • 3 items in the Recent projects list
