Hi, I just wanted to say that the bookmark idea is great. It certainly improves productivity as I am able to rapidly jump between multiple points in my documents (especially my long docs > 200 000 lines), with a stroke of the keyboard. Another feature, I think this may already have been suggested, is the ability to select an element and any child/data it may contain. So the use case would be: if I have a sect2 that is long, say three screens, I would like to place the cursor into the opening or closing sect2 element, right-click > select element. This will cause the editor to select <sect2> ... any content ... </sect2>. We already have an option to Escape Selection. If Oxygen had an XML Browser feature like that of XMLShell or MSIE this would also be great for productivity and usability. Another feature. It would be very useful to have an insight menu that displays the values of all id attributes (XPath representation would be //*/@id). The use case for this is great for Docbook xlink elements like xref, where the xref linkend attribute is the value an element id attribute. Naturally the id should be within the current document so that parsing can be done to obtain the value of all id's. Although, an enhanced version should enable a user to select the document to be parsed for id values. This would reduce the need to open a document in order to identify the exact string value of an id. Another feature, also I think previously mentioned. Is a Tree View. Not the Tree Editor, but a Tree View that enables navigation and selection of document parts. This view should also be insync with the cursor position in the editor. Next. This change would be very intrusive. Would it be possible to break the interface into an open plan? Rather than having a single window bordering all parts, separate the parts into dock-able pieces. 1. Main Menu and Toolbar 2. Project View 3. Editor ( a separate window per document ) Editor Toolbar and Message panel can remain on each Editor Window. The idea behind the open plan interface is to enable better optimization of the screen real-estate, greater flexibility in real-estate layout. Just some thoughts. w b interested in hearing view of developers and other users on these ideas. Cheers. Sean Wheller __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo!
