When we do merges with Beyond Compare there is a "Take Left" or "Take Right" option for each conflict.. is there any way to do a "Take Left for all conflicts"? I've seen this in other merge tools (Kidff3 has it) but I can't see it in Beyond Compare.

Change the display filter to Show Conflicts (View->Show Conflicts), then in one of the input panes use Select All (Ctrl+A) followed by Take Left (Ctrl+L) or Take Right (Ctrl+R).
