§4 FAQ
Q: How can I load more than one PDX file into my data storage at a time?
A: You can't. 'Open PDX' will completly reset your data storage and you cannot select more than one PDX file in the file chooser dialog. 'Add ODX' will not let you add PDX files. If you really need to have several PDX files in memory at the same time you may extract the ODX documents from your PDX files and load them all together using 'Open ODX'. Extracting files from a PDX is quite easy since every PDX file is a ZIP-Archive.
Q: I fixed an error in a malicious ODX document, but when I press 'Check Rules' the error persists!
A: The ODX Checker keeps a copy of the document in memory. When you change it on the file system the Checker won't notice. To reload the document just press 'Open ODX' and open it again. This will unload the obsolete file and reload the current version of your document. Keep in mind that using 'Open ODX' resets your data storage, so you should also select unchanged documents for opening if you want them to be kept in memory. Using 'Add ODX' won't have the same effect as 'Open ODX' - you cannot use 'Add ODX' to reload a document!
Q: I tried to reload a document using 'Add ODX' but it didn't work!
A: Using 'Add ODX' won't reload a document. If a document is already in memory the only way to reload it is using 'Open ODX'.
Q: I have an erroneous document but the ODX Checker won't find any errors!
A: Check whether you have specified the correct rule directory (Settings->Preferences...) and on the Rule Set Tab whether you have activated all rules.
Q: I want to check a document but the ODX Checker won't load it!
A: Use an XML Validation Tool to ensure that your document is well-formed and validates on the ODX 2.0.1 Schema.
Q: I want to open a file but the file chooser dialog doesn't show it!
A: The file chooser dialog will present you only files that end with .odx (in case of 'Open ODX' or 'Add ODX') or .pdx (in case of 'Open PDX').
