Storing Global and Project Level Options
When you configure the Oxygen XML Editor options, you can store them globally or bind them to a specific project by choosing the appropriate setting in the preferences pages. They can then be shared with others by exporting the global options or by sharing the stored project-level files. The same is true with transformation and validation scenarios.
Controlling the Storage of the Preferences
Global Options
By default, Global Options is selected in the preferences pages, meaning that the options are stored on your computer and are not accessible to other users (unless you export them into an XML options file that can then be shared).
Global options are stored locally in option files (for example,
oxyOptionsSa18.1.xml for a standalone distribution of Oxygen XML
Editor version 18.1) located in the following directories:
Project Options
If you select Project Options, the preferences are stored in the project file and can be shared with other users.
