[oXygen-user] Tags view in oXygen Author mode

I prefer the "partial tags" mode as it makes for the least clutter but still
makes it clear where tag boundaries are in running text. I'm also used to
using the breadcrumbs to know what my element context is or using the
outline view to navigate around in the absence of tags in the main view.

But I know a lot of people prefer the full-tags mode and that's probably the
best starting point for new authors.

Full tags with attributes tends to be too much noise and you can always use
the attributes panel to see what the attributes are.

Cheers,

Eliot

Subject:  [oXygen-user] Tags view in oXygen Author mode

I¹m creating authoring guidelines for a group of training developers who
will use oXygen XML Author to edit DITA content in Author mode. I would like
to be able to recommend a tags view. The screen captures, and sometimes the
procedures in my documentation, are dependent on the tags view. Since I use
Text mode 99% of the time, I would appreciate advice on the most usable, or
the most commonly used, tags view.

One of the training developers is experienced in Structured FrameMaker; the
others have little or no experience with a structured authoring tool.

Thanks.

Richard
