A set of options controls the behavior of Oxygen XML Editor, allowing you to configure
most of the features. To offer you the highest degree of flexibility in customizing the
application to fit the needs of your organization, Oxygen XML Editor comes with several
distinct layers of option values.

The option layers are as follows (sorted from high priority to low):
- Project Options
- Allows project managers to establish a set of rules for a specific project. These
rules standardize the information exchanged by the team members (for example, if the
project is stored in a repository, a common set of formatting rules avoid conflicts that
may appear when documents modified by various team members are committed to the
repository).
- Global Options
- Allows individual users to personalize Oxygen XML Editor according to their
specific needs.
- Customized
Default Options
- Designed to customize the initial option values for a group of users, this layer
allows an administrator to deploy the application preconfigured with a standardized set
of option values.
- Default Options
- The predefined default or built-in values, tuned so that Oxygen XML Editor
behaves optimally in most working environments.
Note: If you set a specific option in one of the layers, but it is not applied in the
application, make sure that one of the higher priority layers does not overwrite it.
