XSLT Quick Assist Support
The Quick Assist
support helps you to rapidly access search and refactoring actions. If one or more
actions are available in the current context, they are accessible via a yellow bulb help
(
) placed at the current line in the stripe on the
left side of the editor. Also, you can invoke the Quick Assist menu by using the
Ctrl + 1
(Meta
1 on macOS) keyboard shortcuts.
Two categories of actions are available in the Quick Assist menu:
-
Actions available on a selection made inside an attribute that contains an XPath expression:
Extract template- Extracts the selected XSLT instructions sequence into a new template.
Move to another stylesheet- Allows you to move one or more XSLT global components (templates, functions, or parameters) to another stylesheet.
Extract local
variable- Allows you to create a new local variable by extracting the selected XPath expression.
Extract global
variable- Allows you to create a new global variable by extracting the selected XPath expression.
Extract template
parameter- Allows you to create a new template parameter by extracting the selected XPath expression.
Extract global
parameter- Allows you to create a new global parameter by extracting the selected XPath expression.
