If I am only changing sync directions, it shouldn't unselect, otherwise this will be an annoyence if I just switch sync redirections for creating rollback scripts.
I agree with David Atkinson, that sometimes one want to sync with the same objects selected with other databases.
IMO there are two ways of implementing this.
1. Ask the user if he wants to keep the selected objects, if a database was changed.
2. if select all object, select all left only, select all right only or the select all identical is checked and the user changes a database, only select those objects in the new compassion, which also were in the old comparision. The danger is then the tool selects something for you, without your knowledge. If one is not aware, that the tool selected some objects for you, you will get some nasty surprises.
I believe that option 2 is the best solution, but thats a change in how it is done today. / comments

It seems that your are right. But I noticed, that if you have compared database a and b and selected all objects. and now changes the database a to c in the edit dialog, then after the comparision all objects i a and c is now selected. IMO this should have resettet the selected objects to none
I believe this was the reason why I had more objects selected than I knew of. / comments

I came to the same conclusion. It must be because it's not respecting the dependencies correctly. I solve my problem with the same solution as you described, but I of cause still like to get it fixed, as it will give me issues in the future also

Can anybody tell if this is on the drawing board for sql compare 9 or 8.5. As a reviewer and the person in charge of merging databases, this feature can save a lot of work. Many of my coworkers are very happy with code formatting, which hide and makes it difficult to see the real difference between 2 objects / comments
