There is no option or switch to do that. You must specify this in the CSS style sheet by using the "collapsed:yes" property value. See http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/docs/poweruser/ar01s06s03.html#collapsibleblocks It is possible to do so without modifying the configurations bundled with XXE. For that, you must customize these configurations like described in http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/config_faq.html#customize_docbook The FAQ uses DocBook as an example but the same approach should work for any other class of documents. DocBook example: --------------- If I copy mydocbook.xxe: --- <?xml version='1.0' encoding='ISO-8859-1'?> <configuration name="DocBook" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns="http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/schema/configuration" xmlns:cfg="http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/schema/configuration"> <include location="docbook/docbook.xxe" system="true" /> <css name="DocBook" location="mydocbook.css" /> </configuration> --- and mydocbook.css: --- @import url(file:///home/hussein/src/xxe/distrib/config/docbook/css/docbook.css); set, book, part, reference, chapter, preface, article, sect1, sect2, sect3, sect4, section, appendix, figure, example, table { collapsed: yes; } --- to ~/.xxe2/config/ (C:\Documents and Settings\hussein\xxe2\config\ on Windows), all my docbook documents will be opened collapsed. If you want to try the above customizations, do not forget to replace url(file:///home/hussein/src/xxe/distrib/config/docbook/css/docbook.css) by something like url(file:///C:/Program%20Files/XMLmind_XML_Editor/config/docbook/css/docbook.css) -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
