Oxygen XML Editor 2.0.4

September 19, 2003

Edit Remote Files

You can now edit files over FTP. Also, HTTP/WebDAV support is present, although it is experimental. You can enter a base URL and then browse a FTP or WebDAV repository to select the desired file or files to open. During open as well as during save, the progress is displayed and you can cancel the operation at any time.

Better Presentation for Errors and Find Results

Errors and find results are now presented in a table instead of a list allowing you to order the different columns that compose a message as desired.

Link to Specification for XML Schema Errors

You can easily find the specification reference for the XML Schema errors with just one click. The error messages contain an Info field that when clicked will open the browser on the "XML Schema Part 1:Structures" specification at exactly the point where the error is described thus allowing you to understand the reason for that error.

Improve the Validate Support for Relax NG Schemas

The Relax NG schemas in compact syntax can be validated using Oxygen.

Content Completion Assistance Driven by Relax NG Schemas

When editing documents associated with a Relax NG schema the editor will offer content completion proposals for elements and attributes.

Replace String Accepts New Lines

The replace string can contain '{$ENTER}' which at the replace time will be rendered as a new line character.

Better Console Support

The output console where the external tools place their output can now be 'cleared' and a maximum number of lines can also be set through the Options / Preferences page.

Configurable Editor Background Color

The editor's background color is customizable.
