Insert Table
Opens a dialog box that allows you to configure and insert a table. You can generate a header and footer, set the number of rows and columns of the table and decide how the table is framed.
Insert an ordered list at the caret position
Inserts an ordered list. A child list item is also automatically inserted by default.
Generate IDs
This action generates and sets unique IDs for:
  • the element at caret position
  • all top-level elements found in the current selection. Additionally, if the selection contains elements from the TEI > ID Options list, they will all receive an unique ID
Note: IDs already set are preserved.

The action is available both in the contextual menu and in the TEI main menu.

ID Options
Action available in the TEI main menu, allows you to specify the elements for which Oxygen XML Editor generates an unique ID if the Auto generate IDs for elements option is enabled. The configurable ID value pattern can accept most of the application supported editor variables.

To keep an already set element ID when copying content in the same document, make sure the Remove IDs when copying content in the same document option is not checked.

Search References
Finds the references to the id attribute value of the selected element in all the topics from the current DITA map (opened in the DITA Maps Manager view). The default shortcut of the action is Ctrl Shift G (Command Shift G on OS X) and can be changed in the DITA Topic document type.

Dragging a file from the Project view or DITA Maps Manager view and dropping it into a TEI ODD document that is edited in Author mode, creates a link to the dragged file (the ptr element with the target attribute) at the drop location.
