| Providing context-sensitive information from the schema helps a lot on creating XML content. On moving the mouse over an element name, the XML editor shows after a short time all of the information from the assigned schema it can find. The pop-up window shows annotations, simple type, enumerations, patterns and namespaces. Use the "Reload entry-helpers from schema" command from the editor context-menu to update the information if the schema has changed in the meantime. |

| Context-sensitive entry-helper windows with schema information are available in the editor for the following situations: Element names After typing "<" in the editor a list with all possible element names will appear if an element can be added at the current position. Attribute names An entry-helper window with attribute names is shown on typing a blank " " inside the starting tag of an XML element. Element and attribute value enumerations A list of enumeration values from the schema is displayed on starting to edit the content of an element after typing ">" or after adding an attribute. |
