Select Objects and Properties By Type
Use the Type Selection dialog to set the compare level to a model type - logical level, physical level, or database level. Your choice is then set as a default option for the compare process. You can also indicate a customized option set for your compare, create a new option set, and edit, rename, or delete an existing option set.
From release r9.6 onward, you can compare the properties of the comments that are entered in the Extended Notes tab. The Extended Notes option is available as a separate node under the individual object node.
Follow these steps:
- Click Actions, Complete Compare.
The Complete Compare Wizard opens.
- Select the model, database, or script for both the left and right model, then click Type Selection in the navigation pane.
The Type Selection pane opens.
- Select the objects and properties that you want to compare.
You can filter specific objects by clearing the check box next to the object name. You can save your selections in a new option set, or you can select options and can use them for the current compare session only. Choose from the following options:
- Compare Level
Sets the selection type for your compare. You can set this depending on the model, database, or script file you chose for the left and right pane of the selection dialog.
- Logical Level - All objects that are contained on the logical level of a model.
- Physical Level - All objects that are contained on the physical level of a model.
- Database Level - All objects on the database level.
- Open, Save, Save As, or Delete an Option Set
Lets you create an option set and save for future use. You can also open, modify, or delete an existing option set.
- Standard Default Option Set
Filters many objects and properties from the selection tree. This option excludes physical-only object types, and includes a minimal set of property types. Use this default for standard compares where it is not necessary to include all objects and properties in the compare process.
- Advanced Default Option Set
Includes all objects in the selection tree, except those objects that are assigned generated values during forward or reverse engineering. Use this default option set for advanced compares, in which you want all objects to participate in the compare process.
- Click Next to continue to the next pane.
The type selection is saved.
