Editing Modes

Luca Bellonda edited this page Jan 6, 2018 · 1 revision

Three editing modes are available:

  • textual
  • using a form
  • using a specialized form for some kinds of elements

Usual double click on element opens the form for elements editing, and double clicking while holding shift key opens the textual edit mode panel.

Textual editing form can be recalled simply pressing the ‘e’ (for edit) key.

If the element supports a specialized edit mode (XSLT, XInclude for example) the specialized form panel is activated using “alternative” methods (for example using CTRL while double clicking).

Activating a special edit mode (current supported only for XSLT, SCXML) the main edit mode is shifted to specialized forms, and the “normal” mode is activated using the “alternative” methods.

Details on the editing shortcuts can be found in the QXmlEdit using the menu item “Help/Principal Shortcuts” in the QXmlEdit Wiki at the following link:
