The Source Pane


The Source pane (Figure A) allows you to roll up your sleeves and edit the source code of your schema directly. If you're comfortable with schema syntax, editing them directly may occasionally be useful or even convenient. Even if you don't want to edit your schemas directly, the Source pane provides a more complete way to examine your declarations than is possible through the Notes pane, where only one declaration is visible at a time.

Figure A - The Source Pane

You can make changes to the source of your schema directly, modifying, adding, or deleting declarations. To make the other panes and windows reflect the changes you've made, click on 'Reparse' at the top of the pane. XML Authority will read your changes and report on any errors that it finds, as well as update the rest of the display.
