To display the XSLT mapper, open an XSLT stylesheet that was created by the XSLT mapper, or select File > New > XSLT Stylesheet from the Stylus Studio menu bar and then click the Mapper tab. The XSLT mapper allows you to map the schema of an XML file to the schema of another XML file. This is useful when you have more than one form for the same information. For example, each vendor might organize an invoice in a different way. Mapping one XML document to another XML document is for XML documents that share similar elements. When you map one XML file to another XML file, one file is the source document and one file is the destination document. Stylus Studio generates a stylesheet that you can apply to XML documents that have the same schema as the source document. After you apply the stylesheet, the result document has the same schema as the destination document.
Fields

Click the down arrow to select a previously defined scenario.
