Compare error : Invalid conversion : JSON string to JSON number

Hi everyone,

I have a live script MLX which is stored in a GitLab repo. I'm concerned that inadvertent edits have caused file divergence between branches. I pulled down the MLX from the 2 different branches, intending to use Matlab Compare tool to investigate.

I get the following pop-up error, which I haven't been able to resolve --

Live Code Comparison : Invalid conversion : JSON string to JSON number

To my knowledge, there is no visible JSON code in this MLX. To be safe, I cleared all output and embedded images from both versions. I did leave the Table of Contents in place.

The 2 versions execute without errors. This seems to be a Compare-specific problem.

Can anyone please offer any suggestions for what this error message might constructively be trying to tell me?

This issue is a bummer for me as it will likely lead to a branch merging conflict that may not be easy to resolve.
