Defining an XML model
Model Items page
20
The Items page of the model property sheet displays the list of global objects
(with no parent symbol in the diagram, directly linked to the <schema> tag)
created in the model. This list reflects the order in which global objects are
being declared in the schema. If you want to change this order of declaration,
you must select an item in the list and use the arrowed buttons, at the bottom-
left corner of the page, to move the selected item in the list:
