Description Randy Hudson CLA 2004-09-07 16:47:06 EDT
1) Select on an outgoing change
2) Select on another outgoing change which get's opened in the same editor (I'm 
guessing)
3) Press CTRL+PERIOD

The message "Last Difference Reached." is displayed.  Close and reopen the same 
outoing change and press CTRL+PERIOD again.  The action works this time.

The compare editor gains focus when you double-click on a file in the sync view.
When you press ctrl+., it's the compare editors next action that is run. This is
consistent with how opening files work, the opened editor is given focus. If you
want to step through all changes to the files in the sync view, give the sync
view focus then use the next/previous keys.

Of course the editor has focus or I wouldn't be trying to invoke the 
keybinding. I'm using 3.0.0, and simply clicking on the outgoing change throws 
focus to the editor. See bug 68250.

Deja vu

Comment 4 Jean-Michel Lemieux CLA 2004-09-08 17:07:09 EDT
Both the editor and sync view contribute next/previous actions. I didn't fully
understand your problem, and assumed you meant the sync view actions were
broken. The description in bug 67888 is a lot clearer.
