Feature request: XPath without preview & namespace scan

KNIME Analytics Platform

Dear KNIMErs,

Could we plese get an XPath node without the preview window & namespace scan? It's sure great for small XMLs to see all that, but loading just 90 MB worth of XML routinely freezes my machine, and only thanks to these (apprently memory-inefficient) activities.

Many thanks
E

Pretty please :)

Hey E,

As far as I know all you have to do is not execute the previous node. If you then attempt to open the XPath-dialog you are asked if you want to execute upstream nodes. Just say no and the preview stays empty.

Best,
Ferry
