Allow for searching variables, templates with Ctrl-O in XSL Editor

Post by lukaseder »

In the Java editors, I can jump to class members (attributes and methods) quickly using Ctrl-O:

Hit Ctrl-O in a Java class and start typing the name of a method (including wildcards) to quickly filter all options.

It would be great if this were possible in the XSL editor, too. I know the Outline view has similar capabilities, but I'm generally faster with the keyboard...

In the XSL editor, Ctrl-O would help matching <xsl:param/>, <xsl:variable/> and <xsl:template/>. Maybe, also <xsl:key/> and others?

Hi,

Thank you for the feedback.

I see that in Eclipse the action is named "Quick Outline" so it's actually based on the Outline.
I've logged this feature request to our issue tracking tool, maybe we can do something similar.

Regards,
Adrian

Please, please implement it! using ctrl+o is a very quick way to navigate in complex java files, so it will be handy to use it in xslt

Hi Oxygen Team,
Any news on that feature ? Can you kindly add a "+1" vote to this ?

With the software "as is", what would be your advised way of working for action like jumping from the start of an element to the end (or the other way around)? Our writers like to do that to check some profiling (typically at the end of large sections).

Regards,

Martin

Hello Martin,

This feature has not been implemented yet (v16.1). I've added another vote to the feature request from our issue tracking tool.
Are you looking for this feature for XSL files? I'm asking because your other question seems to be unrelated to this request.

For navigation between start element tag and end element tag in Text mode you can use the Document > XML Document > Go to matching tag (Ctrl+Shift+G) action.

Regards,
Adrian
