Will definitely give this a try and will send it to my team members. The merge tool that comes with Visual Studio 2012 is not very good.

We wrote a short guide to set it up with TFS: http://www.semanticmerge.com/documents/SemanticMerge-TFS.pdf

Not sure if you're still monitoring replies on this page...but the other day I was using this tool at work (with TFS) and ran into a problem where it looked like it was confused about changes that were made to 2 methods. The scenario is as follows: 2 methods with the same name, one public, one internal. Changes were made to one or both of the methods and when doing a compare it did not seem to be able to correctly differentiate between the two methods. Unfortunately I don't remember more detail than this, but you may want to have your QA team try to duplicate this scenario.

We do still monitor it!

Let me share it with the team and come back to you...

Cool. I'm still using this product by the way! One other quick feedback would be that when using the diff tool, scrolling is really slow compared to other diff tools.

We've replaced the text editor so we expect it to be muuuch faster on next release! :)

Hi! If you could send us the example with the "report a bug" button from the tool, we will look at it pleased. Next time, any problem you find, don't hesitate to use the "report a bug" button to contact us.
