SQL Compare - Highlight Date of newer item

It would be extremely helpful for the compare to highlight the one that is newer. When trying to decide if server 1 or server 2 wins, we need to know which ones were updated more recently on one or the other server.

Since the date fields are on extreme sides, it's difficult to compare dates.

Color for the newer one or putting the date columns in the center would be two ways to help with this. Color/bold would be ideal.

    I came to suggest this feature exactly. It's discouraging to see that this is from 2018 and we still don't have it in 2024.

    Yes; so we've got a snapshot which we want to "deploy" and we need to check that there's been no "fiddling" (i.e. panic changes) to the target server that are *newer* than the snapshot; so if direction of deploy is left >> right and item on right is newer a highlight would be a massive help!
