All views except the Source view are automatically synchronized. When you select characters or elements in one view of a document, Amaya automatically scrolls the other views of the document to show the selected items.
You can edit a document in any view. During editing, the changes you make are displayed only in the active view. When you select a button bar or menu command or click in another location, Amaya updates the other views to display your changes.
Selection and editing commands act always in the document tree. When you select two elements in a view, the selection is extended to the minimum sub-tree that includes these two elements, even if some elements are not displayed in that view. Commands applied to that selection (delete by example) acts on the whole selection.
The Source view is not automatically synchronized. After making a series of edits in the Source view, you must choose File > Synchronize to update the other views of the document. Conversely, when you make changes in any other view, choose File > Synchronize to update the Source view.
When you synchronize a document, Amaya will re-validate it. If you introduced markup errors in the source view, Amaya will recover as well as it can. You should check the document in the Structure or Formatted view after editing in Source view to ensure that synchronization has done what you expected.
When you save a document from the Source view or from the Formatted view (locally or remotely), synchronization occurs automatically. All views reflect the state of the document at the time it is saved.
