XML Editor

Oxygen combines the easy way of working in a visual WYSIWYG-like XML editor with the full power of XML source editing. Also, the Outline view, which is synchronized with the edited XML document, shows the entire markup structure.

The Author mode allows drag-and-drop editing. You can select the XML content then drag and drop it in the desired location to move or copy that content.

The WYSIWYG-like editor was closely integrated in Oxygen as an editor tab called Author next to the Text and Grid editing modes. All Oxygen's powerful editing actions are also available in the Author mode. These include: spell checking (on request and as-you-type), XML validation (continuous, on request), search and replace, and XPath execution. Also all side views that Oxygen provides are offering information when editing in Author mode.

You can indicate the elements that can be folded using a Oxygen CSS property extension: "foldable".

Incomplete error reports, such as "required attributes missing", "required elements missing", or "unfinished element", are now updated to report exactly what XML attributes or elements are missing and what is expected to finish the element.

The errors regarding overlapping names inside interleave are now reported by specifying the actual names that are overlapping.

TEI P5 0.9 schemas and the TEI XSL 5.7 stylesheets are included in the installation kit.

Updated to the version 1.73.2 of the XSL Stylesheets and DocBook 5.0 RC 7 XML Schemas.

Updated FOP to the latest version 0.94.

You can turn on the "learn words" option in the Oxygen Eclipse plugin. Hence, by using the CTRL+SPACE shortcut you can insert a word from ones you previously used in the document simply by typing the first few letters of the word.

The spell checking takes into account the value of the xml:lang attribute and switches the dictionary automatically when you run the spell checking on a file.

You can generate PDF/A-1b files using the built-in FO processor.

Using the ALT+UP/DOWN key combination you can move the currently selected lines in the XML document source.

The XML Schema location can be specified using URN syntax. The URN is then mapped using the XML catalogs "system" entries to the actual schema.
