XSLT Transformation

This type of transformation specifies the parameters and location of an XML document that the edited XSLT stylesheet is applied on. This scenario is useful when you develop an XSLT document and the XML document is in its final form.

To create an XSLT transformation scenario, use one of the following methods:

  • Use the Configure Transformation Scenario(s) (Alt + Shift + T, C (Command + Alt + T, C on OS X)) action from the toolbar or the XML menu. Then click the New button and select XSLT transformation.
  • Use the Apply Transformation Scenario(s) (Alt + Shift + T, T (Command + Alt + T, T on OS X)) action from the toolbar or the XML menu. Then click the New button and select XSLT transformation.

    Note

    If a scenario is already associated with the edited document, selecting Apply Transformation Scenario(s) runs the associated scenario automatically. You can check to see if transformation scenarios are associated with the edited document by hovering your cursor over the Apply Transformation Scenario button.
  • Go to WindowShow View and select Transformation Scenarios to display this view. Click the New button and select XSLT transformation.

All three methods open the New Scenario dialog box.

The upper part of the dialog box allows you to specify the Name of the transformation scenario.

The lower part of the dialog box contains several tabs that allow you to configure the options that control the transformation.
