Merge text without the text in quotes

[jasonhudgens]

Hello guys
I have two files. I want to take from the two files ONLY the values that are NOT in quotes (" "). What is the best way to do this? Example: I am a "good" guy I am not a "bad" guy Now I copy the first line into the second and the result should be: => I am a "bad" guy The word in " " must be ignored.

Hello,

There isn't an automated method to act that way during a copy from one side to the other. You would have to manually edit the destination side.

You can create an Text Replacement, which can ignore this specific type of change as an unimportant difference. This doesn't impact copying, but impacts the comparison. You would define "good" = "bad", and that specific change will be Unimportant/Blue, which can then be ignored with Ignore Unimportant Differences enabled on the toolbar. This is a Pro specific feature, but you can trial pro with this guide:

It's on our wishlist for replacements to also affect the Copy commands, but that is not supported in BC4.
