Viewing tags

You can control whether XML tags are visible in the Editor and, if so, how they are displayed.

Showing block tags can be useful if you want to do some paste or insert operations where the location of your cursor is important, e.g., when pasting or inserting a provision before the first provision in the series.

How to change the XML tag mode.

Select Document>Preferences… from the upper tool bar to bring up the preferences dialogue box.

You can then select how you want the XML tags to be displayed using the Tags display mode drop down menu. The options are:

• No Tags: displays no tags in the Editor leaving it as close to a word-processor view as possible.

• Partial Tags: displays simple tags without names for inline elements, while block elements are not displayed.

• Inline Tags: to display full tag names for inline elements, while block elements are not displayed.

• Block Tags: to display full tag names for block elements and simple tags without names for inline elements

• Full Tags: to display full tag names without attributes for both block and inline elements

• Full Tags with Attributes: to display full tag names with attributes for both block and inline elements

The distinction between “inline” and “block” elements hasn’t been fully configured in Lawmaker so you may not see tags on all the elements you are expecting when using the following modes: Partial Tags, Inline Tags and Block Tags.
