I love that feature!

Well, you can. Sort of. If you scroll the text window and then makes a mouse-over the details-widget will be scrolled accordingly. So you can use Ctrl-Left and Ctrl-Right to scroll while keeping the mouse over the desired line. A bit cumbersome, but it works.

> I think it will be nice if this detailed comparison doesn`t hide when I mouse out these lines. So the detailed information should be shown on the line I mouse over or on selected line. In this case I can select line and then scroll detailed information.

I do not know if exactly that is such a good idea... But I do agree on the principle. It would be very nice to be able to scroll the widget in an easy way using the mouse. I can't really think of an intuitive way to do it. Anyone else?

Wild idea: Maybe display some kind of button rightmost on the hovered line that would act as a kind of drag-anchor. Click and hold it and you can scroll the widget.
