Results and execution
Run and inspect the pipeline
Pipeline actions > Run pipeline starts a run. You can also press Cmd + Enter on macOS or Ctrl + Enter elsewhere. During a run, select Cancel pipeline or press Escape to stop it.
To run after edits automatically, enable Run pipeline automatically under Settings > Matching > Automation & benchmarks. The manual run action remains available when automatic execution is on.
Previous output can remain visible while a new result is pending. Copy actions are disabled for outdated results.
The right details panel shows the Execution trace. Layer numbers follow the current pipeline order, including disabled layers. Select a row to open its layer. The Type column shows the operation for each layer.
Each row reports input and output line counts, character counts, time, and an operation-specific effect. For example, Filter lines reports kept and removed lines. Unique lines reports duplicates removed. Substitution reports replacements. Hover over a layer's status icon to read its status or error.
If a layer fails, later layers cannot complete. Select the affected row, correct the error, and run again. If layer data cannot load, use Run pipeline to regenerate it. Verify Pipeline completed before copying the final result.
Compare a layer's changes
In the output heading, open View: Output and select Changes. The comparison shows input on the left and output on the right. Red marks removed text. Green marks added text. Unchanged sections collapse to show context. An unchanged result shows No changes.
Large or complex comparisons can show changed blocks instead of individual character changes. Select Output to return to the result.
Copy the result
Select Pipeline actions > Copy final output to copy the completed result from any tab. Use a layer's Copy… > Input or Copy… > Output menu to copy its text. The read-only editors also have copy buttons at the top right.
