Description Mike Pawlowski

2007-06-18 17:53:11 EDT

Editor currently rewrites entire file on save.
As a result, custom XML input entered in the source page by the user is not preserved.

Rewrite the model to use text edit operations in order to make the editor as smart as the Plug-in Manifest Editor.

Notable Enhancements

* Implemented custom processing of elements containing mixed content 
  (child elements and text content)
  -> For custom 'collapsible' elements, all child elements are processed
     as text content
  -> Created helper utilities in text edit operation framework

* Implemented custom termination of start elements to reduce XML clutter
  -> i.e. Create empty elements or use an end element tag

* Updates Simple Cheat Sheet new file wizard to use the new model

* Handle world change events in the UI using stale markers and refreshing 
  rather than direct updates
  -> Performance enhancement to reduce source page reconciling time on edit

The Simple Cheat Sheet Editor is stable and now has the ability to preserve custom XML mark-up (e.g. comments, elements, etc.) and formatting.  Old and new functionality is operational.

Fixed.  Patch released to HEAD.
