Annotations

To open the Annotations preferences page, go to Options > Preferences > Editor > Content Completion > Annotations.

The following preferences can be configured for the annotations of the elements and attributes displayed by the Content Completion Assistant:

• Show annotations - Oxygen XML Editor displays the schema annotations of an element, attribute, or attribute value currently selected in the Content Completion Assistant proposals list. This option is applied also in the Author mode of the XML editor.
• Show annotations as tooltip - Oxygen XML Editor displays the annotation of elements and attributes as a tooltip when you hover over them with the cursor in the XML editor panel or in the Elements view (both the Text editing mode one and the Author editing mode one). This option is applied also in the Author mode of the XML editor.
• Use DTD comments as annotation - When enabled, Oxygen XML Editor uses all DTD comments as annotations. If this option is disabled, Oxygen XML Editor displays only special Oxygen XML Editor doc: comments, or if they are missing, it displays any other comment found in the DTD.
• Use all Relax NG annotations as documentation - When enabled, any element outside the Relax NG namespace, that is http://relaxng.org/ns/structure/1.0, is considered annotation and is displayed in the annotation window next to the Content Completion Assistant window and in the Model view. When disabled, only elements from the Relax NG annotations namespace, that is http://relaxng.org/ns/compatibility/annotations/1.0 are considered annotations.
