Element Ordering [message #728256]

I am seeing a peculiar scenario, am editing an xml on my sapphire based editor, my xml is backed by an XSD. Now the ordering of element is getting jumbled Sad

, whenever i add a child element its always added to the end rather than is place defined in XSD.

Anyway we can control this so that my element comes in order as defined by XSD ?

Sapphire figures out element ordering based on what's dictated by XSD. While it's possible that there is a bug in the algorithm, I would first verify that schema declaration (as shown in source view is correct). Check that you get schema based validation in the source view. If you are getting schema based validation, are the "jumbled" elements being flagged as problems? If they are not, then it's likely that Sapphire is following the correct order per XSD specification. Take another look at the schema, perhaps "choice" or "any" constructs are used in places where you are assuming "sequence".

I'm experiencing the same issue originally described by Kamesh.
Schema based validation in the source seems to be working well, elements out of order (in a xs:sequence) are marked and flagged as problems.
Though when Sapphire adds the same elements they are not inserted in the right position in the document.

Please start a new thread with your specific details. Make sure to include the schema and enough of the model so that I can setup a repro if something doesn't immediately jump out at me when I read the source listing.
