    Prettify XML/JSON when comparing?

    Hi,

    Is there a way to prettify a flat XML or JSON string as part of the comparison?

    Hello,

    You can download and install XML Tidy or JSON Tidy formats from here:
    http://www.scootersoftware.com/downl..._moreformatsv4

    Are the files entire xml or json, or have a section that needs tidying? We don't support tidying a small section, but you can launch a new tab comparing just that text as a temporary comparison by:
    select text, right click and Copy
    select another section of text, right click and Compare to Clipboard.

    This new tab can then be tidied with one of the Tidy formats.
