Open a file in docbook mode

Post by Vincent De Groote »

Hello,

I created a docbook file. This file was edited in docbook mode. When I open the file again, I can only edit it in xml mode. How can I switch back to the "wisiwig" docbook mode ?

Thanks for your replies

Hello,

You switch between Text mode and Author (WYSIWYG like) mode using the tab buttons called Text and Author and located in the bottom left corner of the editing area. There are three buttons there that switch between the three stacked pages for the same file: Text, Grid, Author.

If you want to open XML files always in Author mode instead of Text mode you can do that by setting the initial page to Author instead of Text for XML Editor from menu Options -> Preferences -> Editor -> Pages -- XML Editor.


Regards,
Sorin
