Is there a way to show only the files that will be copied?

I normally use Synchronize - Update. After I click the Compare button, on the destination (right side) it shows me a list of all files. Tens of thousands of files. There may only be a few files that have changed or are new on the source, but they are scattered in the whole list of files. Is there a way for me to set FreeFileSync to only show me the files that will be copied?

You can toggle the visibility of Compare Result Categories in the Compare Results window, by clicking a Category icon mid-below the Compare Results.
(In field 11 in the Main Dialog Overview.)
Note that this field (11) only shows icons for non-empty Categories.
You even have the opportunity to save your modified Category visibility as your (new) default setting.
