Editing as XML


The XML tab allows you to view/edit the XML (eXtensible Markup Language) data.

 

The toolbar provides additional functionality for BLOB Viewer/Editor: use the btnSave Save to file and the iconLoadFromFile Load from file toolbar buttons to save the content as *.xml or load XML content from a file.

 

Data View - BLOB View - XML

 

 

The XML content is represented as a tree-like structure consisting four editable fields: Name, Unique, Attributes and Value. You can edit data and modify the structure using drag-n-drop operations and items of the context menu.

 

Hint: Hold the Shift key when you drag-and-drop a node to insert it as a child one.

 

The context menu allows you to:

  • add a node (a child node relatively to the selected one);
  • remove the selected node;
  • copy the selected node source to clipboard;
  • cut the selected node;
  • copy the selected node;
  • paste a node from clipboard.

 

Press the Item attributes btnReport_EditData button in the editing mode of an Attribute item to add or edit attributes.
