Overview
Sync Navigation is a feature exclusively available in Compare View, ensuring that any navigation adjustments—such as zooming, panning, or switching pages—are instantly applied to the corresponding version. This allows for a seamless comparison, making it easier to identify differences and assess changes with precision. Users can interact with annotations, comments, and markup tools in both versions while maintaining alignment between them.
