Global XML Property Descriptions
The IDE's XML properties are organized into two groups based on their relative
complexity.
Properties
- Automatic Parsing Delay. Specifies the delay, in milliseconds,
before the IDE automatically parses an XML document. Set this property to
zero to disable parsing for XML documents.
Expert Properties
- Default XML Action. Specifies the action that the XML runs on an
XML node when you double-click it.
- Short Empty Element. Specifies the format of empty elements. When
selected, empty elements are created in a single tag (<element/>).
When unselected, empty elements have separate end tags (<element></element>).
