Currently Unicode characters are not supported as \uNNNN expressions in the Replace field. We will consider supporting them in a future version. You have to use the character directly, that is the character é. If you set a Unicode font capable of rendering the needed character in Options -> Prefer...

Toggle UTF-8 / numeric entity view

I am working with XML files in native UTF-8 that contain a number of different Unicode spaces (like em space, U+2003, and figure space, U+2007). In the editor, of course these all look exactly like regular spaces. It would be a nice feature to have some sort of toggle that would allow them to be rep...

Correction to question

Actually, I guess that \uXXXX syntax is from Java rather than Perl--I still don't understand why it works in "find" but not "replace".

Unicode find/replace in regular expressions

Using the "regular expression" option in oXygen 7.1 Find/Replace, I can find a character using Perl \uNNNN syntax, but I cannot use that syntax to replace. For example, to search for é (accented 'e', U+00e9) it works if I put \u00e9 in the "Text to find" field, but if I want to ...

Aha. Looking at oxygen.jar, I see that skeleton1-5.xsl is built into it. So if I need to share a Schematron schema with someone who does not have oXygen, I will need to give them that file separately. This makes sense.

Thanks,

Another form of the bug

The processing instruction is also followed if I put junk in front of it: <!-- <?FOOBARoxygen SCHSchema="http://rotunda.upress.virginia.edu/Schemas/FE/GWP/GWP.sch"?> --> So it appears that oXygen is simply looking for a string rather than distinguishing between a comment node and a PI node.
