I too have experienced this bug in the Text mode, over various oXygen releases, and just learned to live with it, but I’m glad someone else has raised the question. It happens when you start with an empty, collapsed element, position your cursor before the / then try to type a >. The problem doesn’t occur if the element has any attributes. I haven’t adjusted the content completion options.

Best wishes,

Hi Bernhard,

Do you have this problem when editing XML in the Text editing mode or
when editing XQuery with XML tags inside it?
Did you make any changes to the Oxygen Preferences->"Editor / Content
Completion" page defaults?

Regards,
Radu
