Oxygen XML Developer plugin includes smart editing features to help you edit XML
documents in Text mode. The following smart editing features are
included:
-
Closing tag auto-expansion - This feature helps save some keystrokes by automatically
inserting a closing tag when you insert a complete start tag and the cursor is automatically
placed in between the start and end tags. For instance, after entering a start
<tag>, the corresponding closing </tag> is
automatically inserted and the cursor is placed between the two
(<tag>|</tag>.
-
Auto-rename matching tag - When you edit the name of a start tag, Oxygen XML Developer plugin will mirror-edit the name of the matching end tag. This feature can be
controlled from the Content Completion option page.
-
Auto-breaking the edited line - The Hard
line wrap option automatically breaks the edited line when its length exceeds
the maximum line length defined for
the format and indent operation.
- Indent on Enter - The Indent on Enter option indents the new line inserted when you press
Enter.
- Smart Enter - The Smart
Enter option inserts an empty line between the start and end tags. If you
press Enter between a start and end tag, the
action places the cursor in an indented position on the empty line between the lines that
contain the start and end tag.
- Double-click - A double-click selects a certain text, depending on the position of
the click in the document:
- If the click position is on a start tag or end tag, then the element name is
selected.
- If the click position is after
a start tag or before an end tag, then the entire content of the element without the
start and end tags is selected.
- If the click position is before
a start tag or after an end tag, then the entire tag is selected, including the start
and end tags, and the content in between.
- If the click position is
immediately before an attribute, then the entire attribute and its value is
selected.
- If the click position is immediately after the opening quote or immediately before the
closing quote of an attribute value, then the entire attribute value is selected.
- Otherwise, a double-click selects contiguous text.
- Triple-click - A triple-click selects the entire
current line of text.
