I'd like to have a little more control over what happens when the XML is formatted. Are there any plans to add this? For example, I'd like to have a blank line before any comments. Comments typically start a logical block, and having that line there helps to graphically define it.

Hello, You can achieve the same effect if you insert a blank line just after the start of the comment because <oXygen/> will preserve it. Regards, Sorin T Reaves wrote:

Fraid not. Oxygen is removing EVERY blank line. On Aug 16, 2004, at 8:30 AM, Sorin Ristache wrote:

<oXygen/> preserves the content of XML comments when the user applies the "Format and indent" function. It also preserves the white space inside the XML elements that you specify in the "Preserve space elements" list (Options -> Preferences -> Editor / Format). Try inserting the comment <!-- Start of new logical block. --> in your document and apply "Format and indent". The two blank lines will remain untouched. Hope that helps, Sorin T Reaves wrote:
