You
can change the symbols that are used to mark whitespace. If you have enabled
whitespace character substitution, the symbols are used in the Rational® ClearCase® XML
Diff Merge data display; otherwise no characters are substituted for whitespace.
You can use any characters from the current text display font.
- The Whitespace Characters pane in
the Options window shows the glyphs currently defined for the space, tab,
and end of line characters:
- To modify a whitespace character,
double-click its name in the list, or select its line and click Character.
The Alternate Glyph window opens.
- Map a glyph to the whitespace character
by entering a value into the field to the left of the Display button.
Use one of the following methods to enter a value:
Paste a character:
- Select the Character.
- ClickMap.
- Select and copy a character from
the Windows Character Map window in the Alternate Glyph window.
Click either the Decimal or Hexadecimal option,
and enter a value directly in the field.
Click Character, Decimal ,
or Hexadecimal to see the value of a glyph in another
format. The field displays the equivalent format.
Click Display to
see the glyph for any character, decimal, or hexadecimal value. The glyph
is displayed in the left field.
Click OK to
confirm your settings.
Whitespace character settings are saved in the Windows registry when you
exit Rational ClearCase XML
Diff Merge.
