| 21 | <div><p>When you are working in the Source view, you can use F3 to navigate |
| syeshin | d0bdb8e | 2005-10-27 17:44:14 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 22 | through the file by placing your cursor in the appropriate item and clicking |
| 23 | F3 to jump to the item it refers to. </p> |
| 24 | <div class="section"><p>You can jump to any of the following items:</p> |
| 25 | <ul><li>Element or attribute declaration's type</li> |
| syeshin | f3d0d4b | 2005-07-27 18:33:03 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 26 | <li>Element references</li> |
| syeshin | f3d0d4b | 2005-07-27 18:33:03 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 27 | <li>Group references</li> |
| 28 | <li>Attribute references</li> |
| 29 | <li>Attribute group references</li> |
| 30 | <li>Import, include, and redefine element (the external schema will open in |
| 31 | the XML schema editor. This only works with schemas in the workspace).</li> |
| 32 | </ul> |
| syeshin | d0bdb8e | 2005-10-27 17:44:14 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 33 | <p>You must place your cursor exactly in the location of the reference |
| 34 | (for example between the double quotes for <tt class="sysout">type = " "</tt> or |
| 35 | <tt class="sysout">base = " "</tt>).</p> |
| 36 | <p>For example, |
| 37 | if you place your cursor anywhere in the following text and click F3:</p> |
| 38 | <p> <tt class="sysout"><element |
| 39 | name="shipTo" type="po:USAddress"></element></tt> </p> |
| syeshin | f3d0d4b | 2005-07-27 18:33:03 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 40 | <p>the |
| 41 | cursor will automatically jump to the location in the file where the type |
| 42 | USAddress is defined.</p> |
| syeshin | d0bdb8e | 2005-10-27 17:44:14 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 43 | <p>Or, if you place your cursor anywhere in the following |
| 44 | text and click F3:</p> |
| syeshin | f3d0d4b | 2005-07-27 18:33:03 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 45 | <p> <tt class="sysout"><element ref="po:ContactElement"></element></tt> </p> |
| 46 | <p>the |
| 47 | cursor will automatically jump to the location in the file where the global |
| 48 | element ContactElement is defined.</p> |
| 49 | <p>This works across files. For example, |
| syeshin | d0bdb8e | 2005-10-27 17:44:14 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 50 | if the type you have selected is defined in another XML schema and you click |
| syeshin | f3d0d4b | 2005-07-27 18:33:03 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 51 | F3, you will automatically be taken to that file.</p> |
