In earlier versions we had an empty field shown as:

Please allow me to copy my explanation and response from Traffic Viewer/Diff tool issue:
You show these extra attributes:
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:nil="true"
This is the typical way to say that the element represents a null pointer as opposed to an empty string, for example.
This is an intentional change made a few years ago for the SOAtest 2021.2 release.
From the SOAtest 2021.2 release notes:SOA-8013 Database Tool Returns zero or empty string for null values
Previously, the result set XML did not distinguish whether a value was a null as opposed to empty string or zero but now it does. The Traffic Viewer's Table view will also now render null values a special way, those that have xsi:nil="true" in the XML representation.
and this can't be turned off?
No. Please update your Diff controls, for example.

hi, sorry that is strange, but it is exactly the link you send to mee, so first it was:
"< SOMETHING/ >"
And now it is
"< SOMETHING xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:nil="true" >"So I guess in 2021.2 there has been an update and now empty field are shown with:
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:nil="true"
and this can't be turned off?
