FAQ

Can I compare two project files?

Using [Project Comparison Tool] allows you to compare two project files (*.PRX) on your PC.

On the Windows [Start] menu, click [Programs]->[Proface]->[GP-Pro EX *.**](*.**=version)->[Project Comparison Tool].

The Project Comparison Tool appears. Click the

icons.

The [Open File] window appears. Select the project file to compare and click [Open].

(Specify a file for each of [PRX file 1] and [PRX file 2].)

Click [Start comparison].

The comparison results are displayed.

The results are displayed for each item (tab).

Only the item tabs that show differences appear. The comparison result ignores things that are the same.

IMPORTANT

-	To use [Project Comparison Tool], GP-Pro EX Ver. 3.0 or above is required. Upgrade GP-Pro EX

-	For the following cases, even if there’s no difference of settings, differences are displayed. (EX: [Project A.prx] and [Project B.prx] are compared.)

	[Case 1] A file is edited once and saved. After that, the changes are cancelled.
	(1)	Save the [Project A.prx] as [Project B.prx].
	(2)	Edit the [Project B.prx] and save it.
	(3)	Cancel the changes of [Project B.prx], which were made in the step (2) and save the file.

	[Case 2] Two different files are compared.
	(1)	Create two new files, [Project A.prx] and [Project B.prx].
	(2)	Configure the same settings and create the same screens on both [Project A.prx] and [Project B.prx]. Then save each.

	[Project A.prx] and [Project B.prx] have the same contents, but differences are displayed.

-	If there are some differences of model settings or installation methods (portrait/landscape) between the 2 project files to compare, the following message will appear and those files will not be compared.

NOTE

-	If you uncheck [Show only differences], the comparison result will show things that are the same as well.
-	You cannot start multiple instances of the Project Comparison Tool.
