Liquid XML Studio includes a Graphical XML Editor, simplifying the job of authoring and validating XML documents.

Key Features of the Graphical XML Editor |
 |
|
Intellisense
The Auto complete feature makes editing XML documents much simpler, but we have taken this a step further in the XML Editor by intelligently calculating the auto complete from an associated set of XML Schemas. So you are presented with the attributes or elements that are allowed, given your position in the file. |

XML Grid Editor
The XML Grid Editor allows you to create and edit your XML data in the form of a tree or table. The standard tree based paradigm is often very limiting when editing repeated sets of data (i.e. a set of addresses). The Table paradigm makes the data more accessible, presenting it more like a spread sheet, making it easy to view and view.
The XML Editor has a split screen XML Code / XML Grid which also makes it easy to see where a given node fits into the overall structure of the document. |

Validation
The XML Editor implements a comprehensive validation framework to ensure your XML documents are valid. Validation starts by checking the document is well formed, then moves on to ensuring that it is valid against any associated schemas, imported or included XSD and inline or external DTD. The user is informed of the level of validation performed.
Errors are shown inline within the XML document and in the error window. |

Outlining (Code Folding)
The XML Editor allows elements within the XML document to be collapsed, this maximizes your working area simplifying editing of large files. |

Built in XPath Query Viewer
Each XML Editor window can show the results of an XPath expression. The results are shown as highlighted regions within the XML Editor. The highlights are changed in real time as the XML or XPath expressions change.

Infer an XML Schema (XML to XSD)
The XML Editor provides a tool to allow you easily infer an XSD (reverse engineer) from one or more XML documents back into an XML Schema (XSD). The XML Schema can then be used to provide Intellisense and validation to your XML documents.
