    -   *Scope:* Display
    -   *Types:* [check](https://docs.typo3.org/permalink/t3tca:columns-check@14.3), [flex](https://docs.typo3.org/permalink/t3tca:columns-flex@14.3), [group](https://docs.typo3.org/permalink/t3tca:columns-group@14.3), [imageManipulation](https://docs.typo3.org/permalink/t3tca:columns-imagemanipulation@14.3), [input](https://docs.typo3.org/permalink/t3tca:columns-input@14.3), [radio](https://docs.typo3.org/permalink/t3tca:columns-radio@14.3)

    Show a "diff-view" if the content of the default language record has been changed after the
    translation overlay has been created. The \['ctrl'\] section property
    [transOrigDiffSourceField](https://docs.typo3.org/permalink/t3tca:ctrl-reference-transorigdiffsourcefield@14.3) has to be specified
    to enable this wizard in a translated record.

    This wizard is important for editors who maintain translated records: They can see what has been
    changed in their localization parent between the last save operation of the overlay.
