  2. There are 4 available comparison types

    • Description

    • Properties (can be fine-tuned)

    • External properties (can be fine-tuned)

    • Dependencies

  3. The toggle allows you to display the text that has changed between the requirements (read next section)

  4. You can add more variant columns to be able to compare more data

  5. You can save current display

In the matrix, here is the color code:

  • White cell: The requirement is present and is the same as previous column

  • White cell with (M): The requirement has some modification compared to the previous column

  • Grey cell: The requirement is absent


Of course, the user can combine one/more/all the fields for comparison.
