Oxygen XML Forum

Under Linux.

When I place the cursor into an Entity Reference (&somename;), right-click and select Open file at cursor, the file types list is displayed. When I select the document type Oxy returns an error containing a path and the entity like this /some/path/&somename

I think it is meant to open the target file.

Is this an error on my behalf or a bug?

Open file at cursor does not refer to entities. For example if you have a string "A.xml" in the XML document then by moving the cursor after A and choosing Open file at cursor, the file named "A.xml" will be opened. We have on our agenda an improvement to this feature, so that the external entities can be opened as well.
