EQInterface Forums - View Single Post - darn it all... Cut copy paste and save broke

As far as I've seen, you can't cut, copy, paste, or use the delete key in the XML window.

As far as the post title "save broke", I've noticed that clicking save in the XML window doesn't save the file to disk, just commits it to memory (if you don't click it, changes are lost if you select a different object). You still have to save the skin from the file menu to see the changes in the xml file.

Also, if you're not editing too many files, you can always do your edits in sidlwidl and then open them up in notepad after and find&replace all "True" with "true" and "False" with "false". Or you can write a nice quick sed script to run after you do edits to update all xml files for you.
