This document says: "The base GUI specification is by default[4] xxe-gui:app/Professional.xxe_gui, which is a resource contained in xxe_app.jar" But there is no visible xxe_app.jar in my XXE installation. After a bit of search I've found the base GUI spec in: <XXE_dir>\bin\xxe.jar\gui\app\common.xxe_gui (included by Professional.xxe_gui at the same location) Is it the expected place? On the other hand, what I was trying to suggest was not a modal edit dialog, but a submenu of the right-click pop-up menu that offers a list of valid element names for inserting at a given place. Is it possible to customize the right-click, context-sensitive pop-up? Thanks for your helpful explanations. -- Manuel Collado - http://lml.ls.fi.upm.es/~mcollado -- XMLmind XML Editor Support List [email protected] http://www.xmlmind.com/mailman/listinfo/xmleditor-support
