Perhaps I should have pointed out that I always work out of BBEdit's projects these days. The docs are then "stacked" in the same window.
The logic of the diff is: Two docs open - feature available. Two docs + scratchpad open - feature not available. One doc + scratchpad open - feature not available. Hence my suggestion for a small improvement where the scratchpad is never considered part of the equation. I'll add a user scenario where this change makes some sense (at least to me): Working in projects, the screen is typically filled with your file list and editing view. If the scratchpad is open, I tend to toggle it and the project window with Exposé. This means that the scratchpad for the most part is hidden while open. Selecting two docs for a diff in your project may then produce somewhat of a puzzling suprise since, based on user experience, the menu item should be active. Without the scratchpad open, in this case hidden behind your project window, it works as normal and expected. Once I discovered the cause of the missing menu item, it was of course no longer a mystery. But I did ponder what seemed like a bug for more than one diff. In great software, one can only suggest the most minute and almost useless improvements, right? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BBEdit Talk" group.
