Error description

  • You may encounter an issue when using the XML tools in RAD (or
    RSAD) to
    create a sequence node in a XML schema (i.e XSD).
    
    Steps to reproduce
    
    1) Create a new XML Schema (XSD);
    2) Create a new type, then double-click on type to open the XSD
    editor - toggle the editor to the "Detailed" view;
    3) Right-click on the header of the type and select "Add
    Sequence"
    
    Expected results: a new [empty] sequence should be rendered in
    the type below the header;
    Actual results: empty space appears.
    
    Alternatively, you could add an element/element ref/any to the
    type, which will also create a sequence; it is not initially
    rendered in the Design view, but the sequence is added to the
    DOM and is visible in the Outline view.
    
    This appears to be a bug in Eclipse WTP; see -
    https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=526728
    

Local fix

  • You can use one of the following three (3) workarounds:
    
    a) Switch back to the top level view and then drill down again;
    b) Switch to the source view and then switch back to the design
    view;
    c) Referring back to the "Steps to reproduce" in the error
    description above, after step 1, skip step 2 and go directly to
    step 3.
