Using the Keyboard
Oxygen XML Developer plugin allows you to quickly navigate through a document using the key to go to the next XML node and to go to the previous one.
To navigate one word forward or backwards, use Ctrl Right Arrow (Command Right Arrow on OS X), and Ctrl Left Arrow (Command Left Arrow on OS X), respectively. To position the cursor at the beginning or end of the document you can use Ctrl Home (Command Home on OS X), and Ctrl End (Command End on OS X), respectively.
Using the Breadcrumb Helpers
A breadcrumb on the top stripe indicates the path from the document root element to the current element. It can also be used as a helpful tool to navigate to specific elements throughout the structure of the document.
Figure: The Breadcrumb in Text Mode
The last element listed in the breadcrumb is the element at the current cursor
position. Clicking an element from the
breadcrumb selects the entire element in the editor area. Also, each element
provides a contextual menu with access to the following actions:
- Append Child
- Allows you to select an element (from a drop-down list) that is allowed by the associated schema and inserts it as a child of the current element.
- Insert Before
- Allows you to select an element (from a drop-down list) that is allowed by the associated schema and inserts it immediately before the current element, as a sibling.
- Insert After
- Allows you to select an element (from a drop-down list) that is allowed by the associated schema and inserts it immediately after the current element, as a sibling.
- Edit Attributes
- Opens an editing window that allows you to edit the attributes of the currently selected element.
