Make the script for execution writable
Make the script for execution writable. It would be faster to be edited in you editor that is already connected to the target database and saves time . The alternatives (save or copy) are more time consuming

Change scripts should have existence checks on every object they add - tables, constraints, etc.
I've encountered this, especially with default constraints. I generate a change script. I run it on a system. Something happens that causes the script to fail. I fix the problem, but then it fails the second time because the default constraints it is trying to create are already there!

Allow to view objects excluded by filter
Both SQL Source Control and SQL Compare tell me how many objects are excluded by the filter. I can click on the link (button in SQL Compare) to see my filter settings. What I do not seem to be able to do is view the diff for excluded objects. Can you please add a button (or similar) to the UI of SQL Source Control and SQL Compare, that will allow me to toggle the diff table content between included and excluded objects.

Avoid creation of Recovery tables
Please give an option to ignore Recore tables creation. I am trying to use SQLCompare in DevOps model to avoid long release timings. But if there is any data type change to a huge table then current concept of creation of recovery tables is disabling all the FK's, removing indexes and eventually creating a new table. This is very long process and not benefitting the projects. There should be an option to avoid the creation of Recovery tables. Please think in that perspective.

Ignore DEFAULT(X) column constraints
Replicated (push) tables do not contain default column constraints on the subscriber which are identified as breaks within SQL Compare 10. Provide the ability to ignore DEFAULT(X) properties on column within the UI.

compression
When applying data compression differences (table or index), use rebuild partition or rebuild index rather than drop & create, both to minimize impact, and in the case of primary keys on replicated tables, avoid failure because replicated tables can't be dropped.
e.g.,
ALTER TABLE schema.TableName REBUILD PARTITION = ALL WITH (DATACOMPRESSION = PAGE);
ALTER INDEX [IndexName] ON schema.TableName REBUILD PARTITION = ALL WITH (DATACOMPRESSION=PAGE);1 vote -
When deciding to synchronize some objects, at the first screen of the wizard must exist a check-box for not checking for dependencies
When deciding to synchronize some objects, at the first screen of the wizard must exist a check-box for not checking for dependencies, if checked (also I would like this to be the default behavior). This should allow the wizard not even to check for dependencies, which could be faster

risk
There are some changes that are riskier than others, not because of the type of change, but because of the object. For example, some changes require rebuilding a table or index. This can be a simple process if there are a few hundred rows, but it's a risky, slow process if there are a few billion.
It would be nice to add a "risk" value to certain tables, so that when I see a list of changes, I can determine if this particular object ought to be separated out as a different deployment.

Problem printing the interactive report
When I print an interactive html report to a color printer, some texts and images of the header come out printed, and the green, red and yellow colors of the types of differences are lost.

Attempts to add columns to table after dropping it in generated script
I just updated to SQL Compare version 13.4.0.6563 and tried to generate an update script for a database.
Several tables should have had two columns added to them but there seems to be a bug as the generated script followed these steps for each:
1 Drop primary key
2 Drop table
3 Add columns to table3 votes -
Possible bug -- changed behavour of Swap left and right button on the data sources page
In the latest version (updated this morning), the swap button changes server names, etc. shown in the header part of the page (source and target), but leaves info filled in on the bottom half alone. Can be confusing as to which server/database/etc. will be the source/left side and which will be the target/right side.

Add Ignore whitespace in string literals option
The behavior of the "Ignore whitespace" option was changed in version 13.3:
SC-9967: "Ignore whitespace" option is no longer applied to string literalsThis option would retain legacy functionality by adding the ability to still ignore whitespace in string literals.

Add Summary View command line option
Currently there are 3 output options when running sql compare via the command line /quiet /verbose and the default. I'd like to see an option between the default and verbose logging similar to the "Summary view" present in the main application.
For example: I'd like to see the tablename that has diffs (default option) AND the name of the index on said table that is different (new summary option), but not the entire table definition (verbose option).1 vote -
Ignore indexes option should not query indexes
If indexes & partition schemas/functions are set to be ignored, SQL Compare should not attempt to query them. Additionally would be helpful for other object types that are ignored so that the queries are streamlined to only what is selected for compare. This would be a performance enhancement, the pain is where there is a high number of partitions where the intention is just to compare something simple like stored procedures and UDFs.

SQL Compare Flagged store procedure difference but could not see where
SQL Compare Flagged a difference between Test and Production Store Procedure but I could not see where. I had to use notepad++ compare to see a Single Space. Please make this visible in the next release.
