Edit modes preferences do not work for "Find in Files" results
Hi group I'm using oXygen XML Editor 14. I have set my Edit modes preferences to open XML files in Author mode (Options > Preferences > Edit Modes > XML Editor: Author. This works when I open an XML file by double-clicking the topicref in a DITA map. However, I see that this does not work when I double-click an entry in the "Find in Files" pane. Can this be fixed? Thanks. -- Yves Barbion www.scripto.nu
Dear Yves, This works as designed. The find in files operation works on the text and therefore for all the results it obtains it has a line and column and the length of that hit. Now, a result can be not only part of the XML content, thus easily to be rendered in the Author mode but it can be part of an element, part of an attribute or part of an attribute value, or even more difficult it can overlap on multiple such elements, attributes, values thus making the rendering process impossible in the general case in the Author mode while the rendering is strait forward in the Text mode. The Find/Replace action on the open editor will work only on the content when you are in the Author mode, thus the results will be rendered in the Author page and there is no switch in the Text page.

Hi, But we understand the importance of such a feature for a writer so we do have future plans to also provide the means to search the content (with normalized white spaces) and then locate the matches in the Author page. So I'll let you know when this gets implemented.
