Flattened view
When viewing large folders, you may be interested in only a few files among the thousands in the folder itself. For this reason, Meld includes a flattened view of a folder; only files that have not been filtered out (e.g., by Version control state filtering) are shown, and the folder hierarchy is stripped away, with file paths shown in the Location column.
You can toggle the flattened view on or off using the Version Filters button on the toolbar and selecting Flatten Folders.
