1.5. View menu

Redraw

Rebuilds the view of the whole document, no matter which text or nodes are selected.

Note

Like command Edit Referencing Document, this command has also the side-effect of automatically refreshing the referencing document after modifications made to the referenced documents. For example, if document book.xml references chap1.xml and if chap1.xml has been modified, this command will refresh what has been included from chap1.xml before rebuilding the view of book.xml.

Add

Opens a dialog which allows to add a new view to current document tab. A document tab can contain up to 5 views: default central view, but also top, right, bottom, left views. A view is specified by selecting a CSS style sheet among the available ones or, on the contrary, by selecting no style sheet at all, which implies to use a tree view.

Close

Closes active view. Central view, which is supposed to be the main view, cannot be closed.

The active view is the view having the keyboard focus: the caret blinks in this view, and not in the other views of the document. To make a view the active one, simply click anywhere in it.

Below the above menu item, a menu item is added for each CSS style sheet available for current document. Selecting the name of a style sheet causes the document view to use this style sheet. If a document view already uses the selected style sheet, the style sheet is reloaded from its file (which is very handy when developing a new CSS style sheet).
