“Toggle” element literal. Next to this toggle is found an arrow button displaying a menu containing additional checkboxes for the following elements: filename, sgmltag[element], sgmltag[attribute], sgmltag[attvalue].

Displays a menu letting the user change the character case of selected text. If a single node is selected, this converts the character case of all the text contained in this node. If there is no selection of any kind, this converts the character case from caret position to end of word, then it moves the caret to the next word.

Convert implicit or explicit selection to plain text.

Displays menu letting the user add a link to your document.

This button displays a menu having 2 entries: Set ID and List Anchors and Links.

The List Anchors and Links menu entry displays a dialog box letting the user search and select anchors (that is, any element having an ID) and links. Its Copy button copies selected ID or link target to the clipboard.

Convert a paragraph to a list item and a list item to a paragraph, the new element having a lesser nesting level than the original one. This button automatically splits lists when needed to.

This is the inverse command of "Increase nesting level". More Information below.

Convert a paragraph to a list item and a list item to a paragraph, the new element having a greater nesting level than the original one. This button automatically creates lists or merges adjacent lists when needed to.

Note that the two above buttons strictly alternate between paragraphs and list items. This means that you'll often have to click a button twice in a row. For example, in order to create a nested list, first click anywhere inside a list item and then click "Increase nesting level" twice. First click converts the list item to a plain paragraph contained in the preceding list item. Second click converts this paragraph to the first item of a new nested list.

For the two above buttons to function, any of the following conditions should be met:

When a paragraph is to be converted to a new list using this "Increase nesting level" button, there is a quick and simple way to specify the kind of list to be created: If the paragraph is empty, simply type "*", "-", "1.", "a.", "A.", "i.", "I.", optionally followed by space characters, in it. If the paragraph is not empty, type "*", "-", "1.", "a.", "A.", "i.", "I.", followed by at least one space character, at the very beginning of it. These “prefixes” are used to create respectively: itemizedlist, itemizedlist, orderedlist, orderedlist[loweralpha], orderedlist[upperalpha], orderedlist[lowerroman], orderedlist[upperroman], as if the "Change list type" menu below was automatically used.

Displays a menu allowing the user to change the type of the current list.

Additional menu entry "Continue Numbering", which is rendered as a checkbox, sets the continuation attribute of an ordered list to continues when this attribute is absent and removes this attribute otherwise. Additional menu entry "Inherit Numbering", which is rendered as a checkbox, sets the inheritnum attribute of an ordered list to inherit when this attribute is absent and removes this attribute otherwise.

The list must be explicitly or implicitly selected. In order to implicitly select a list, suffice to click anywhere inside it.

Known problems

Except for the simplest cases, "Continue Numbering" is not correctly rendered in the styled view of the document. For example, "Continue Numbering" has no visual effect on orderedlist elements having an orderedlist ancestor. The reason of this limitation is that the implementation of "Continue Numbering" leverages standard CSS counters. However, when you'll convert your document to other formats such as HTML, PDF, DOCX, etc, there are no such limitations and "Continue Numbering" should give you the expected results.

Displays a menu allowing the user to select a type of list (itemizedlist, orderedlist, variablelist). The chosen list is added after node selection or after caret at a location where it is valid to do so.

Add a para element after node selection or after caret at a location where it is valid to do so.

Add a listitem or varlistitem element after current list item. For this command to work, suffice to click anywhere inside an itemizedlist, orderedlist or variablelist element.

Displays a menu allowing the user to insert a footnote or a reference to a footnote (footnoteref) at caret position.

If a reference to a footnote is already selected, the footnoteref menu entry lets the user choose the ID of the footnote to be referenced.

Displays a menu allowing the user to add different kinds of admonitions after node selection or after caret at a location where it is valid to do so.

Displays a menu allowing the user to add different kinds of elements containing preformatted text after node selection or after caret at a location where it is valid to do so.

Menu entry "Normalize Whitespace" normalizes whitespace in implicitly or explicitly selected program listing. Normalizing whitespace means: expanding tab characters to a number of space characters and removing the space characters which are common to the beginning of all text lines (that is, removing the superfluous “indentation” in the program listing, if any).

Displays a menu letting the user add different kinds of images and figures after node selection or after caret at a location where it is valid to do so.

Adding an image map to your document

The following menu items allow to add the equivalent of an HTML image map to your DocBook documents. mediaobject(callout) Add an image map containing internal links typically pointing to the calloutlist element found at the end of the inserted imageobjectco element. See also command "Link callouts". mediaobject(imagemap) (DocBook 5 only) Add an image map containing external links typically pointing to Web pages. Once any of the above menu items has been used, right-click anywhere inside the newly inserted imageobjectco element and select "Edit Image Map" from the contextual popup menu to display an image map editor. This image map editor allows to add “hot areas” to your image. More information in Section 17, “The "Edit Image Map" dialog box” in XMLmind XML Editor - Online Help.

Displays a menu letting the user add various kinds of MathML equations after node selection or after caret at a location where it is valid to do so.

This toolbar button is present only when a DocBook 5.1+ document is opened. Displays a menu containing the following items:

More information in Section 16, “The media player dialog box” in XMLmind XML Editor - Online Help.

	Do not forget to select the DocBook XSL stylesheets generating XHTML 5 rather than plain HTML
	If your document contains audio and video elements, do not forget to select the DocBook XSL stylesheets generating XHTML 5 prior to using DocBook → Convert Document → Convert to HTML. This setting is done once for all using Options → Customize Configuration → Customize Document Conversion Stylesheets in XMLmind XML Editor - Online Help.

Displays a menu allowing the user to add chapter or section elements after node selection or after caret at a location where it is valid to do so.

Displays a menu allowing the user to add different kinds of tables after node selection or after caret at a location where it is valid to do so.
