readonly not working for diff on 3.3.8

[bbeardsley]

I'm on windows and pass the following command line and expect the left side to be read only.

bcompare.exe /leftreadonly "D:\code\trunk\Test.cs\" "D:\code\branch\Test.cs"

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,

Brent

Hello,

That command line should work, and show "Editing disabled" in the bottom status pane. How does /lro or /ro1 work for you? Are you launching from the Windows Command Line?

Ok, I guess I was thinking of/looking for the Readonly with the red underline in above the file. I do see the editing disabled on the bottom. Thanks.

Read Only would be the Read Only attribute of the file (similar to System, Hidden, or Archive). You can see the file properties next to the file name or in the Attributes column of the Folder Compare, or in Windows Explorer if you right-click and view the Properties of the file.
