- <h1>Working with Document Views</h1>
-
- <p>Amaya can present different views of a document simultaneously. Each view
- is displayed in a different window so you can clearly see what is happening
- when you edit complex documents.</p>
-
- <p>The multiple windows can also help you move quickly through a document.
- For example, if you click a heading in the Table of Contents view, the
- Formatted view will display the document section you selected.</p>
-
- <p>Six views are available from the Views menu.</p>
-
- <table border="0" cellspacing="8">
- <tbody>
- <tr>
- <td><p><img width="109" height="122"
- src="../../images/formattedview.jpg" alt="formatted view" /></p>
- </td>
- <td><p><strong>Formatted view</strong> (default)</p>
-
- <p>This view is similar to that provided in other graphical browsers.
- It is a dynamic, direct-manipulation view. At all times it displays
- the changes you make to the document, in contrast to editors that
- only provide a series of static snapshots of the document.</p>
- </td>
- </tr>
- <tr>
- <td><p><img width="108" height="98" alt="structure view"
- src="../../images/structureview.jpg" /></p>
- </td>
- <td><p><strong>Structure view</strong> (Views > Show structure)</p>
-
- <p>This view shows the actual structure of the document. Each element
- is represented by its tag name, followed by its attributes on the
- same line. The elements it contains are represented underneath, next
- to a blue vertical line that shows the extent of the element.</p>
-
- <p>You can directly edit any text displayed in black by clicking and
- typing. You must use the editing commands to change text displayed in
- blue.</p>
-
- <p>The structure view shows all the elements of the document even
- those that are not displayed in the formatted view like comments,
- doctype, processing instructions or the elements of the head
- section.</p>
-
- <p>This view also shows the uri of the namespace used by the author
- when an element belongs to a namespace that is different from it's
- parent one's.</p>
- </td>
- </tr>
- <tr>
- <td><p><img width="108" height="102" alt="alternate view"
- src="../../images/alternateview.jpg" /></p>
- </td>
- <td><p><strong>Alternate view</strong> (Views > Show alternate)</p>
-
- <p>This view shows how the document looks when displayed by a
- text-only browser. It is useful for checking the accessibility of
- your documents.</p>
- </td>
- </tr>
- <tr>
- <td><p><img width="109" height="122" alt="links view"
- src="../../images/linksview.jpg" /></p>
- </td>
- <td><p><strong>Links view</strong> (Views > Show links)</p>
-
- <p>This view shows a list of all anchors in the document and the
- elements each anchor contains. You can focus on it when working on
- hypertext links.</p>
- </td>
- </tr>
- <tr>
- <td><p><img width="111" height="168" alt="table of contents view"
- src="../../images/tocview.jpg" /></p>
- </td>
- <td><p><strong>Table of Contents view</strong> (Views > Show table
- of contents)</p>
-
- <p>This view shows a list of all headings (H<i>n</i> elements) in the
- document. If the document is well structured, it displays an overview
- of the document.</p>
- </td>
- </tr>
- <tr>
- <td><p><img width="109" height="115" alt="source view"
- src="../../images/sourceview.jpg" /></p>
- </td>
- <td><p><strong>Source view</strong> (Views > Show source)</p>
-
- <p>This view shows the actual source code of the document. You can
- use it to edit the syntax of your document.</p>
- </td>
- </tr>
- </tbody>
- </table>
-
- <p>You can open and close any view at any time. However, if you have multiple
- views open and close the Formatted view, all other views will close
- automatically.</p>
