For the convenience of my authors, I'd like to limit the elements and attributes available in XXE element and attribute panes. That is, I don't want the elements and the element attributes we don't use to appear in these panes.
Is such a customization possible and fairly easy?

However, I would suggest to: [1] To remove customize_1.xxe, customize_2.xxe, customize_3.xxe from each user's preferences directory addon\ subdirectory and from XXE's system addon\ subdirectory. [2] To put customize_1.xxe, customize_2.xxe, customize_3.xxe in 3 different directory located on a file share accessible by all users. Let's call these directories Z:\shared\xxe1, xxe2, xxe3. [3] To use the XXE_ADDON_PATH environment variable to point to the right customization directory. Example: C:\> set XXE_ADDON_PATH=Z:\shared\xxe3 If you start XXE normally after that, it will automatically use Z:\shared\xxe3\customize_3.xxe Not elegant but better that nothing.
