Hi,

Unfortunately the Info.plist file can no longer be modified in recent versions of macOS without breaking the app signature.
Please read this:

Hi Adrian,
thanks for your hint!
SOLUTION: I finally found the docs for 26.1 https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/versions/ ... es_on_os_x and took the example word by word, both lines in a vmoptions.txt:
-Xmx4g
-Dcom.oxygenxml.editor.plugins.dir="$OXYGEN_HOME/plugins"

Everthing's fine now!

Other attempts, and phenomenons:
  • When I tried to use an vmoptions.txt with one line "-Xmx4096m" only - as described in the post - , Oxygen Editor didn't start at all. Just one jump of the icon in the taskbar.
  • I tried to edit Info.plist - because there is one in /Applications/Oxygen XML Editor 26.0/Oxygen XML Editor.app/Contents. (I don't know what Finder is showing). I added a <string>-Xmx4096m</string> according to https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/versions/ ... es_on_os_x. The Editor starts but cannot find my last project files.
