There are lots of possible and very useful view settings for comparing files in a folder. However, I still miss for some cases a specific view option like:
- View differences and right orphans
- View differences and left orphans
- Show right orphans
- Show left orphans

How about adding customizable views which allow any combination of mismatches, orphans, newer, ...
Setting could be handled like for the DOS attribute / version control filter rules. E.g.:
.....................Ignore.......Exclude if TRUE.......Exclude if FALSE
mismatch
left newer
right newer
left orphans
right orphans

Select Tools | Customize Commands, and then select the "Toggles" option for Display Filters. This will let you create your own combinations of the 6 fundamental conditions.

Hm, ok. Thanks a lot Tim! That's what I need :)
The only improvement I could imagine now would be to store the selected combination as user specified filter for fast access/switching. So, if you have nothing better todo some day... ;)

Anyhow, the current implementation is really helpful as well!
