I'm working on a large, fairly deeply nested XML document, (a Visual Studio/MSBuild configuration) and I had a thought. How much easier would it be to work on it if the editor kept track of the nodes in which the selected node (the one in which the editor's insertion point is located), and either displayed it at the top of the edit window, or had a button that would pop open a balloon with a breadcrumb trail to the root node?
Does anyone know of such an editor?

Not sure if it is what you ask for... but the xml tree explorer in PSPad was very useful for me in the past.

I've implemented something like this before; if you post a question on the C# forum with a sample XML file, I will respond. My last post on the Lounge that contained code (tested, usable code) was reported four times, so we ain't going there again.
You might also check the latest version of Pavel Torgashev's FastColoredTextBox [^] (a CodeProject 'crown jewel' article"), now on GitHub:[^] It does support XML syntax coloring.

Try Visual Studio Code with the RedHat XML extension - VSCode has a breadcrumb bar (if you enable it), and the extension uses that to display the path to your XML file and also shows the path through the file to your cursor location.

Just in case, someone interested... check in Humble

Correction: it is a 2,5 Gb download (looks like is an offline instalator)

I collected it yesterday via the torrent D/L which seems to be the best way - took a couple of minutes is all.
Haven't installed it yet though ... I suspect that might take a little longer ...

Tempting, but I have too many games installed already that I didn't play, maybe I'm just getting too old

Shirley it can't be because you sit in front of a computer all day!
I'm 52 and I haven't really played computer games for the past 15 years. The last games I spent any time on were the Myst/Riven series. Maybe when I retire in 15 years or so I'll have time for it again...and by then, I'm sure the games will have improved, likely all VR.

After floundering about for a comment, I realized that I heard that tuna, played on a bass. It was quite a whale ago.

Reminds me of the old joke about Mick Hucknall being arrested for having sex with a rabbit.
He was "holding back the ears", but apparently "bunny's too tight to mention".
