It is used to edit schema files in OpenLDAP format, atm only offline. It looks like this: http://directory.apache.org/ldapstudio/screenshots.data/Schemas_Editor_Plugin.png 2nd the Schema Browser that is part of the Browser plugin. It shows the schema from the server (from the subschemSubentry). To open it just rightclick the connection and select "Open Schema Browser". It looks like this: http://directory.apache.org/ldapstudio/static/users_guide/ldap_browser/tools_schema_browser_overview.html > Incidentally, do you know (Stefan?) if LDAP Studio > has a Schema drill down "Outline View" like the one > in JXPlorer?

Ok, the LS Schema Browser doesn't have a drill down outline. But I think it shows all information that JXplorer shows. The tree in JXplorer has tree levels: 1st "schema" 2nd category like objectClasses or attributeTypes 3rd the concrete schema element like person or cn When selecting the concrete schema element all its details are displayed in the right frame. In LS you could select the category using the tabs. Each tab contains a a master detail view. On the left side there is a list with all available objectClasses, when selecting one the details are displayed on the right side. You could click the links in the detail part to jump to the corresponding schema elements and you could use the history navigation to jump back/forward. Could you please describe how such a drill down outline could look like? Regards, Stefan
