Oxygen XML Editor 14.2

February 13, 2013

Related version: 14.0     14.1    

Version 14.2 of Oxygen XML Editor adds important features for both XML Development and XML Authoring.

On the XML development side, Oxygen completes the set of XML Schema 1.1-related features with full schema editing support and capabilities to generate XML instances and schema documentation in accordance with W3C standards.

On the XML Authoring side, Oxygen streamlines XML reviewing by adding support for highlights and a Review manager panel. Highlights help you focus on the content you need to review and the Review manager panel displays all the changes, comments and highlights from a document so you can quickly inspect and manage them.

Improvements were made for quickly finding resources in the project by searching in their content or file paths. Oxygen offers these advanced search capabilities by adding a dedicated view that supports complex text search expressions (multiple words, boolean operators, group searches, etc.), as well as XML-aware filters.

Documents from a Microsoft SharePoint server can be accessed using the Data Source Explorer view, where you can edit, check-in, or check-out resources directly.

As usual, Oxygen XML updates many components to their latest versions, and extends the API available to third-party applications.

There are changes in:

XML Schema 1.1 Support

Complete Support for XML Schema 1.1

Oxygen improved the XML Schema 1.1 support, including schema and instance validation, content completion assistance, resource dependencies, search and refactoring actions, and the schema Design mode. It is also possible to generate XML instances and XML Schema documentation starting from an XML Schema 1.1 file [read more].

Text Description for Links

When a cross reference does not provide a description Oxygen automatically extracts one from the title of target element.

Author CSS Extensions

Support for the CSS 3 :empty Selector

Oxygen now supports the CSS 3 :empty selector in the Author mode. This makes possible to apply different styling to empty elements.

Support for the CSS 3 E:root Selector

Oxygen now supports the CSS 3 E:root selector in the Author mode. This makes possible to apply different styling to the same XML element depending on its location in the document: either root, or descendent of the root element.

Support for the CSS 3 font-face At-Rule (@font-face)

You can use the font-face at-rule to render content in the Author mode with custom loaded fonts. The fonts may be shared on a Web server so the entire team can use them.

Properties for Form Controls

Most form controls support the color property. In addition, the oxy_label function supports the background-color property.

CSS

Enhanced CSS Outline and Content Completion Assistance

The CSS Outline displays both selectors and properties. To help developers easily identify properties, specific icons mark each type of property both in the CSS Outline view and in the Content Completion Assistant.
