By using the Types tab and Binding Sources tab, you can edit the types and bindingSources items in the Raw XML tab, and display them in a list. Edits in the Raw XML tab and the Types/Binding Sources tab are synchronized with each other.

To make the information easier to understand, the Types and Binding Sources tabs display only the important properties of the Raw XML tab.
