When you are using the Creation Kit, the records that you have edited in the current active file will be marked with a *.

When you have changed or added many different records, you sometimes want to see these records in 1 list. To do so...

  • Make sure your file is saved to disk.
  • Then navigate to Files>Data from the main toolbar. (You'll see a similar dialog to that picture in Fig 1, below.)
  • Highlight your file in the left pane, and press the Details... button. (A popup box will then show the full list of records that your plugin adds or changes.)
Note: If you see some records listed that you didn't intend to change, you can highlight them in the popup box and press the delete key. This will mark them with an I for ignored. The ignored records will be purged from your file the next time you save it.

The above method is the only way to get a full listing within the Creation Kit of your changes to a master files records, and additional records your plugin creates. It's worth noting that your additional records will have FormID's that are higher than those of the master files. The first 2 characters count up for each file loaded. So sorting by FormID, by clicking the column heading, becomes a useful tool too.
