You have opened a project whose parts are to be synchronized. No editor for working on master data (Plot frame editor, Form editor, etc.) is opened.
Tab Master data > Command group Parts > Synchronize. You have marked a stored part in the Synchronization of parts dialog that is also available in the parts database. [Extras] button > Compare stored part.
In this dialog, the properties of a marked part stored in the project and the properties of the associated system part are compared in the parts database. The stored part is the reference part (left part column). The values of the properties are only displayed and cannot be edited by you. In the table, the properties are listed by row and the parts by column, with their part number and variant designation (in brackets).
Overview of the main dialog elements:
You can specify the display of the properties by means of the following buttons:
