I am run EMF compare on different versions of diff.ecorediag. The
"graphical differences compare" seems strange. I just get a list

Node 1001 has been added
Node 1001 has been added
Node 1001 has been added
Node 1001 has been added


Is there another version of EMF compare that gives more specific names
rather than Node 1001?

The diffing algorithm does not seem to be able to make the comparisons
between versions correctly. For one version it says everything is
deleted and the new version everything is added.

The response was:

The display Strings of your elements (Node 1001...) are not dependent of EMF Compare, but of the plugin that provides these "Node" elements : EMF Compare asks EMF for the display String of its elements. If the plugin offers a better label, it will be displayed. Here, it seems like the label is indeed overriden (or you would have gibberish instead), but it is overriden to something that is not that understandable. However, this is only true for the "tree" representation.

With the "graphical comparison", you should have had a "graphical" representation of the diffs (at least for the supported modelers) such as what you can see on wiki. eclipse. org/EMF_Compare_1.0.0_New_And_Noteworthy#Draft_Graphical_Modelers_Integration .

Which modeler have you tried this on?
