<h1>Sample text of a tag set to (semi-block) style. Notice how wrapping occurs within this tag.</h1>

Adding and Deleting Tags

To add individual tags to a selected scheme, right-click in the Tags column and select New Tag. Type the name of the tag without angle brackets or attributes. Click OK and the new tag is now listed in the Tags column.

Note

Tag names cannot have spaces. If you create a new tag with spaces, SlickEdit® converts the spaces to underscores in the dialog.

To add all of the tags from the current file to a selected scheme, right-click in the Tags column and select Add Tags from Current File.

To remove a tag from a selected scheme, right-click on the tag and select Delete Tag. Deleting SlickEdit Core (default) tags, or any tag that is based on another, is not recommended. If you attempt to do this, you will be prompted whether to continue.

Formatting Settings

The tabs on the XML/HTML Formatting dialog contain settings that control how your text is formatted when XML/HTML Formatting is enabled. The following sections describe the tabs and how each setting works. Before configuring settings, be sure the scheme and tag(s) that you want to affect are selected.

Caution

XML/HTML Formatting does not currently affect XML or HTML Beautifier settings. If you run the beautifier on documents that have been automatically formatted through XML/HTML Formatting, you may find unexpected results.

General Settings
