Colors

Oxygen XML supports syntax highlight for XML, JavaScript / JSON, PHP,CSS documents. While Oxygen XML provides a default color configuration for highlighting the tokens, you can choose to customize it, using the Colors options panel.

The Colors options panel is opened from menu Options > Preferences > Editor > Colors.

Each document type has an associated set of tokens. When a document type node is expanded, the associated tokens are listed. For each token, you can customize the color and the font style. These properties are used in Text mode of the editor panel. The tokens for XML documents are used also in XSD, XSL, RNG documents.
Note: The Preview area contains 4 tabs that allow you to preview XML, XSD, XSL, RNG sample files as they are rendered in Oxygen XML.
When you do not know the name of the token that you want to configure, select a token by clicking directly on that type of token in the Preview area.

You can edit the following color properties of the selected token:

The Enable nested syntax highlight option controls if different content types mixed in the same file (like PHP, JS and CSS scripts inside an HTML file) are highlighted according with the color schemes defined for each content type.
