You can control whether Rational® ClearCase® XML Diff Merge displays whitespace-only nodes when calculating differences. You can only filter nodes that contain only whitespace. In a text node that contains any non-whitespace characters, whitespace is considered significant, and is always displayed.
To filter whitespace-only nodes, select or clear one of the options described in Table 1.
Option | Description |
---|---|
All Visible | Show all whitespace-only nodes. |
Only Differences Visible | Show a whitespace-only node only if it contains a difference. |
None Visible | Show no whitespace-only nodes, even if different. This option is available only in comparing mode, where it is the default; in merging mode, these nodes cannot be ignored. |
