Is there a way to compare two projects for differences? Or even to just determine if one has been modified?  
Thanks.

You can’t compare two projects for differences. Each project does have a edit history and edit count you can look at. The edit count increases each time you save in the designer. There is a system tag for the edit count.

The edit history can be viewed in the Ignition Gateway configuration page by pressing the view link to the right of your project on the projects page.
