Using the Element Catalog
The Element Catalog is a context-sensitive list of elements in a document. The elements
change according to the location of the insertion point or the current selection. The
catalog also contains commands to insert, wrap, or change elements.
Using the Element Catalog to insert elements is called
Guided Editing
because the catalog
guides the writer by helping choose valid elements. A valid element has a special symbol
next to its name in the catalog.
A.
Valid element at the current
location.
B.
Included elements,
valid anywhere in the parent
element.
C.
Incomplete, but
valid in the current element.
D.
Valid in the current element,
but inserting it makes
subsequent elements invalid.
Note:
If there is no symbol, then the element is not valid at the current location.
