I have been testing out a few different xml editor/viewers and I can't seem to find any that have a feature that is comparable to XMLSpy's grid view. Another feature I'd like to find, but is a deal breaker would be XMLSpy's ability to "Copy as Structured Text". Haven't found anything similar to this either in the free varieties of xml editors/viewers.
Anybody ever worked with a free xml editor that has the grid view option like XMLSpy?
XMLSpy is a proprietary XML editor and integrated development environment (IDE) developed by Altova. XMLSpy allows developers to create XML-based and Web services applications using technologies such as XML, JSON, XBRL, XML Schema, XSLT, XPath, XQuery, WSDL and SOAP.
Altova XMLSpy is the world's best selling JSON and XML editor for modeling, editing, transforming, and debugging related technologies.
You can also use XMLPad tool and it's free!! You can download it from here
Another one is EditiX
oXygen has a grid view for editing. oXygen is not free, but they do have a 30 day trial. Great editor for XML based work. The price is reasonable for all the features.
The XML document is displayed in the XML Grid Editor as a structured layout of nested tables in which the text content can be modified without directly interacting the XML tags. considers the child elements and attributes of the recurring elements as columns. The tables can be expanded and collapsed with a mouse click to show or hide the elements as needed. Also the document structure can be changed easily with drag and drop operations on the grid components.
