You're right, the context menu wasn't available in single-pane mode.
And I had to deactivate it again (was activated by accident). Because in
single-pane mode, there's no sure way (at least not with how TMerge is
built now) to get the 'other' changes from the selected ones. Yes, you
might think that it's always the change above, but it's not - there are
special cases where that's not the case and that's why those features
are not available in single-pane mode.
The same (well, almost) applies to inline diffs. And inline diffs in
single pane mode don't make much sense, because if you have a bigger
diff block (say three lines), then the inline diffs would not 'match' -
they would be three lines apart and therefore wouldn't be of much use.
And of course it would be *much* slower to calculate those.
