Intelligent editing
While editing documents, XML Spy provides Intelligent Editing based on these settings. You can also customize various aspects of the behavior of these Entry helpers here.

Default copy to clipboard in grid view as
You can choose the format in which data will be exported to foreign applications using the clipboard. If you select XML-Text, the contents of the clipboard will be formatted and tagged just like the resulting XML file itself.

The structured text mode attempts to format the clipboard contents as a table, for use in a spreadsheet or database application. This option does not affect the internal clipboard format that XML Spy uses for copying and pasting.

Table view
You can also control, how XML Spy decides when to display repeating elements in the Table View.
