[oXygen-user] Format and Indent Problem

[Sorin Ristache]

Hello Xmlizer,

We will make an Oxygen selection plugin that inserts a newline before 
any '>' character that is located at the end of a tag so that the '>' 
will be the first character on the next line. A selection plugin is 
available on the contextual menu of the text editor and receives as 
parameter the current selection of the editor. We will post the plugin 
to the list.

You find details about selection plugins in the User Manual:

Regards,
Sorin
