Show gap lines instead of changes Leave feedback

GroupDocs.Comparison for Python via .NET lets you adjust the output appearance by replacing changed content with empty lines.

Disable inserted/deleted content in the result and leave gaps where changes occurred.

import groupdocs.comparison as gc

with gc.Comparer("source.docx") as comparer:
    comparer.add("target.docx")
    options = gc.CompareOptions()
    options.show_inserted_content = False
    options.show_deleted_content = False
    options.leave_gaps = True
    comparer.compare("result.docx", options)

🔹 Use case: Provide redacted-style diffs that keep layout alignment without showing actual changed text.

The result is as follows:

Default result	Result without LeaveGaps property

Default result	Result with LeaveGaps property
