The XPDL view provides an XPDL text view of the selected elements. It shows the structure of the selected XML element as it will be saved in the XPDL file. Every time the selection is changed or a selected element is being updated, the XPDL View is automatically updated also.
If the selected element is a whole XPDL package then the XPDL View displays the whole package definition in the exact form as it will be written into the XPDL file (when the document is saved). Otherwise the XPDL View will display the part of the XPDL which holds the definition of the selected element. So, when a particular process is selected, the XPDL view displays the process definition part of XPDL as it will be written to the XPDL file, etc.
The following examples show different XPDL Views depending on the element type that is currently selected:
The XPDL view also offers a search box for finding desired text fragments in the currently shown XPDL fragment.
