Copy and Paste Actions
The typical copying and pasting actions are available with shortcuts or in the contextual menu (or the Edit menu):
Cut (Ctrl + X (Command + X on
OS X))- Removes the current selected content from the document and places it in the clipboard.
Copy (Ctrl + C (Command + C on
OS X))- Places a copy of the current selected content in the clipboard.
Paste (Ctrl + V (Command + V on

Moving XML Nodes
You can use the following shortcuts to move XML elements or XSLT variables up or down in Text mode:
- Ctrl + Alt + UpArrow (Command + Alt + UpArrow on OS X)
- Moves the node up one line.
- Ctrl + Alt + DownArrow (Command + Alt + DownArrow on OS X)
- Moves the node down one line.
Note
- The mechanism is designed to work without a selection. If you use these actions on a selection of content, it moves the entire selection. To make this mechanism work as intended, simply position the cursor somewhere on the line that you want to move.
- A start tag must be the first text occurrence on the line where the cursor is positioned.
- On the line where the element ends, only whitespaces are allowed after the end tag.
