Description gliesian 2010-04-07 15:39:10 UTC 
The resultant output file from an XSL transformation isn't formatted.

A quick format (e.g., Alt+Shift+F) will do the trick.... but would there be value-added for the formatting to be done by default?

Or... is there a common requirement for users to produce the desired transformation without it being formatted.

For my need, default formatting would have been nice.

Thanks.

From: http://java.sun.com/j2ee/1.4/docs/tutorial/doc/JAXPXSLT6.html:

Note: When you specify XML output, you can add the indent attribute to produce nicely indented XML output. The specification looks like this:
  <xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>. 

This is another way to format... outside of the NetBeans formatting feature... wondering if this could be integrated into the wizard/template.

This enhancement request may be illogical and/or non-feasible.

This issue should be marked as incomplete until further analysis can be done...

I'll try to offer more info when I have time to look at it.

Thanks.
