Customize Filters button: Opens the Custom Filters dialog box, in which you can edit the filter values of existing filters or add new filters.

Refresh button: Updates the display.

Go to First / Previous / Next / Last Difference buttons: Moves the cursor to the first, previous, next, or last difference.

Purge Local History button: Removes the local history versions of the files.

Restore from Revision button: Makes the current version of the file (in the right-hand area) the same as the revision of the file (in the left-hand area).

Generate Patch button: Opens the Generate Patch dialog, where you can generate a patch containing changes that have been made to the files.

Left-hand and right-hand boxes: The versions are aligned line by line. Lines with differences are highlighted using shaded boxes, joined as appropriate. You cannot edit the left-hand area; you can edit the right-hand area.
