icon in this column. After processing your models, the Resolve Differences dialog opens. You can quickly review differences displayed in the Object View.
The Standard Filters toolbar affects the display in the Object View. By default, the options to show rows that are not equal and not aligned are selected.
Items (rows) that are the same (equal) are not displayed by default, since this would add unnecessary information to the comparison table. Items that are resolved (on which a compare action has been performed) also do not display. When you resolve a difference, that row also disappears from the display.
You can include both of these display options, equal and resolved, when you click the relevant icon on the Standard Filters toolbar.
Differences are easy to see in the Object View because they are marked with one or more identifying icons.
A column displays between the model object label and the object list for the left model in the Object View table. Rows that are not equal display the icon in this column.
Each model also includes columns that list the model objects. For rows that are not equal, and for which an object appears in one model but not the other, the missing object is identified with a cell marked with cross-hatches 
.
When you select a row in the Object View, the Property View is automatically populated. Although the rows in the Property View may be read-only (the synchronization action must be performed in the Object View pane), you can use the Property View to display details about the properties of the objects that do not match.
You synchronize the models simply by moving objects from one model to the other, using the copy 
icons.
When the models are synchronized, the comparison rows (using the default standard display filters described above) appear empty.
To save your synchronization changes, click Finish. Your changes have been made in real-time, and both the model and the project are updated.
