Hi Florent, Yes. One way is to add an eg entry in Options -> Editor -- Format -- XML in the "Preserve space elements (XPath)" list. Another possibility is to use xml:space="preserve" on the elements that you want to have the spaces preserved. If you edit the file in the Author mode then if you specify in the CSS that eg is a witespace preserve element and oXygen takes the CSS information into account and does not change the whitespaces in those elements white-space:pre; Best Regards, George -- George Cristian Bina <oXygen/> XML Editor, Schema Editor and XSLT Editor/Debugger http://www.oxygenxml.com Florent Georges wrote:

Hi,

I am writing a document using the XML Spec format. The element 'eg' in this format is a bit like HTML's pre element: it contains formatted text, within which whitespaces are significant. When I use the 'Format and Indent' action, oXygen indent the whole doc, including those elements (so destroying in part the semantics of their content.)

Is there any way to tell oXygen to not indent some specific elements? I use oXygen 10.2.
