Using Simulink

Navigating Model Differences

As it compares two models, the Graphical Merge Tool constructs a list of the differences between the models. To display the first (or next) difference on the list, select Next Difference from the View menu or enter Ctrl+N. Simulink selects the item in the Graphical Merge Tool window and in the corresponding model window (or windows if the item appears in both models being compared). Select Previous Difference from the View menu or enter Ctrl+P to retrace your steps. If the next or previous difference is in a subsystem, Simulink expands the tree in the differencing tool window and opens the subsystem in the model windows to display the item.

The difference navigation commands allow you to inspect all the differences in a model without having to open every subsystem. They thus speed comparison of complex multilevel models where differences can lie buried deep within the model. The navigation commands also speed merging of the models (see next section) by allowing you to systematically visit all the differences between two models being merged.
