Schematron Outline View

The Outline view for Schematron schemas presents a list of components in a tree-like structure and it allows for quick access to a component by name. By default, it is displayed on the left side of the editor. If the view is not displayed, it can be opened by selecting it from the Window > Show View menu.

The following actions are available in the View menu on the Outline view action bar:

Filter returns exact matches: The text filter of the Outline view returns only exact matches.
Selection update on cursor move: Controls the synchronization between Outline view and source document. The selection in the Outline view can be synchronized with the cursor moves or the changes in the editor. Selecting one of the components from the Outline view also selects the corresponding item in the source document.
Flat presentation mode of the filtered results: When active, the application flattens the filtered result elements to a single level.
Show comments and processing instructions: Show/hide comments and processing instructions in the Outline view.
Show element name: Show/hide element name.
Show text: Show/hide additional text content for the displayed elements.

The following contextual menu actions are also available in the Outline view:

The upper part of the Outline view contains a filter box that allows you to focus on the relevant components.
