The comparison table contains compared directories and their subdirectories. Each subdirectory is delimited by a gray bar. The symbol in the middle of the table defines the synchronization direction for a file, which can be chosen by the user. The text color defines the default synchronization direction determined by the comparison:
| Green (by default) | Synchronizing from left to right | |
| Blue (by default) | Synchronizing from right to left | |
| Black | Files which are considered identical by current comparison rules (no synchronization direction) | |
| Empty box | Files which have equal timestamp and unequal size or attributes. These files are not considered identical by current comparison rules and have no synchronization direction because they have equal timestamps. |
You can see these symbols in the comparison table in the comparison by content mode:
| Green (by default) | Synchronizing from left to right | |
| Blue (by default) | Synchronizing from right to left | |
| Black equal | Files have identical content and are considered identical by current comparison rules (no synchronization direction) | |
| Red equal | Files have identical content and are considered unequal by current comparison rules | |
| Red unequal | Files are unequal by content |
