Sync scrolling between local (left) and remote (right) panels?

Hi,

Is there any way to synchronize the vertical scrolling between the local (left) and remote (right) panels in WinSCP?

For example: when I scroll down on the remote side, I want the local side to scroll together — so both panels stay visually aligned and move at the same time.

This would help me compare folder contents easily, side by side.

Is this possible, or could it be a future feature?

Thanks!

You're not doing yourself any favors by manually comparing in GUI. If you do that a lot, you'd be wasting a lot of time manually comparing when a script could be written to automatically do it.

Possibly using synchronize command with -preview might do it in an easy way, and using synchronize command with hash would save ever more time and effort. There's other ways. But, you'd have to learn how to write scripts or try to find one.

May be able to just manually do it from terminal instead of script as well.

Thanks for your input!

Just to clarify — my request is not about comparing or syncing file contents. I’m not trying to find differences between files or folders.

I’m simply asking for a visual sync of scrolling between the left (local) and right (remote) panels — just to keep them aligned visually while browsing.

It’s purely a UI/UX improvement, not a file comparison need.
This would help when I manually look through similar folders on both sides.

Hope that makes sense!
