Hello, With your current schema the attribute "type" has the default value "unspecified". This default value appears in Oxygen in the Attributes view (Window > Show view > Attributes) when the caret is in the proximity of the "wordgroup" element. Note that the value of the attribute is grayed, meaning it's implied from the schema (not explicit in the XML). Were you expecting the value to appear someplace else? Or did I misunderstand what you're looking for?

Hi,

My colleagues want default attribute values for some tags.

I’ve tried:

<xs:element name=/"wordgroup"/ >

<xs:annotation>

<xs:documentation>The actual words or sentence of an example.</xs:documentation>

</xs:annotation>

<xs:complexType>

<xs:complexContent>

<xs:extension base=/"wordgroup.class"/>

<!-- TODO -->

</xs:extension>

</xs:complexContent>

</xs:complexType>

</xs:element>

<xs:complexType name=/"wordgroup.class"/ mixed=/"true"/>

<xs:attributeGroup ref=/"wordgroup.attributes"//>

</xs:complexType>

<xs:attributeGroup name=/"wordgroup.attributes"/>

<xs:attribute name=/"type"/ type=/"wordgroup-type-att.class"/ default=/"unspecified"//>

</xs:attributeGroup>

<xs:simpleType name=/"wordgroup-type-att.class"/>

<xs:restriction base=/"xs:string"/>

<xs:enumeration value=/"unspecified"/ />

<xs:enumeration value=/"compoundpart"/ />

<xs:enumeration value=/"circumfix"/ />

<xs:enumeration value=/"infix"/ />

</xs:restriction>

</xs:simpleType>

But in this case, no value is set for the attribute “type”.

How can I manage to set a default attribute value that is also shown in oXygen?
