About the Px Editor menu

The Px Editor menu appears in the menu bar when Px Editor is the active view. The Px Editor has the following context-sensitive options:

Item Description
Toggle View/Edit Mode This command toggles the active view between Px Editor (for editing) and Px Viewer (view only). If there are unsaved changes in your Px file, you are prompted to save before switching from Px Editor to Px Viewer.
View Source Xml Selecting this command displays the Px source file in a separate read-only window.
Go to Source Xml Selecting this opens the Px source (xml) file directly in the text file editor. Files can be edited and saved using the editor.
Grid This command toggles the grid display on and off.
Snap This command toggles the snap–to–grid feature on and off.
Show Hatch This command toggles the hatching pattern visibility on and off. When hatching is on, dim angular lines (hatching pattern) displays on objects to make them more visibly distinct.
Zoom In The Px Editor display zooms-in on the canvas pane displaying less of the page at an enlarged size.
Zoom Out The Px Editor display zooms-out on the canvas pane displaying more of the page at a reduced size.
Reset Zoom Resets the canvas pane magnification to x1.0 (100%), displaying the Px page in actual size.
Set Target Media This command is available from the PxEditor menu when you are editing a Px file directly in the Px Editor–not when you are editing the Px file as a view of a component. When selected, this command displays the Set Target Media dialog box to allow you to choose your expected media viewer:
  • HxPx Media

  • Mobile PxMedia (obsolete)

  • Report PxMedia

  • Workbench PxMedia
