Working with XML Schema in Stylus Studio

You use the XML Schema Editor to view, define, and validate XML Schema using one or more of four tabs, or views. The Diagram tab is shown in Figure 212.

Figure 212. XML Schema Editor Diagram Tab

Each tab displays the schema from a unique perspective, as summarized here:

When working with XML Schema in Stylus Studio, you can use whichever view (or views) you prefer - Stylus Studio keeps all the view synchronized automatically. If you are just getting started with XML Schema, consider using the Diagram tab. Its graphical user interface makes defining XML Schema easy and error-free, and the Diagram tab's built-in text pane, which lets you see how new nodes are rendered in XML, can be a useful learning tool. To get started using the Diagram view to define an XML Schema, see Defining an XML Schema Using the Diagram Tab - Getting Started. Procedures for working with the Diagram tab are also covered throughout this chapter.
