Thanks, Radu. I now do some testing using oXygen 16 and a PDF2 transformation but still get an http://www.oxygenxml.com/DITA-messages.html#msgs__DOTJ045I]error message when using a second subject scheme map which is included in the main subject scheme map using <schemeref> : <schemeref href="su...

Hi Radu, - We specified NAV titles for the subjects to make it easier for the authors to assign profiling attributes. However, the Oxygen dialog for assigning profiling attributes does not display the NAV title. Does Oxygen support this? It should, I'm using Oxygen 15.2 for tests and if I have somet...

Hi Radu,

Actually, we plan to finally switching to PDF2 as this is not the only issue we have with the Legacy transformation

Kind regards,
Frank

Hi Radu, JFTR, this seems to be indeed a problem with the DITA-OT version. With older versions (1.7.2) the transformation breaks with the error message The key "my-doc-type" is defined more than once in the same map file. The reference href="" is ignored. https://dita-ot.github.i...

Hi Radu,

Thanks for the quick response and the explanation!

Kind regards,

Hi, When using " visibility, -oxy-collapse-text " with the combobox form control , only the following syntax seems to work: oxy_editor( type, combo, visibility, -oxy-collapse-text, ... ); The following syntax throws an error message: "visibility is not a valid argument for function ox...

(?s) works like a charm and helps tremendously!

Many thanks again for your help,
Frank

Hi Adrian,

Thanks for the explanation and the pointers for a workaround. I will try that.

Kind regards,
Frank

Thanks for the pointer, Sorin.

Hi, I've noticed that the regular expressions do behave differently in Find/Replace within a single file and Find/Replace in Files , most notably the behavior of a point "." As the " Dot matches all " option (Perl's /s modifier) is missing from Find/Replace in Files this makes it...

Hi, We finally will switch from the Legacy PDF transformation to the current PDF2 transformation . However, as both transformation use the same FO processor (Apache FOP), I'm wondering what and where exactly is the difference between these two transformations? This would be good to know as we gradua...

Thanks for this clarification, Radu.

Frank

I've tried your suggestions successfully, Radu. However, shouldn't Ant run integrator.xml instead of build.xml?

Frank

Hi Radu,
Thanks for the quick reply and the workaround. Will try that

Kind regards,

Hi, We want to link to external DOORS (requirement management system) resources from DITA files. The links look like this: doors://inc4209.server.de-hxg01.domain.com:36677/?version=2&prodID=0&urn=urn:telelogic::1-455c3682813a957b-M-00013f00 Trying to create an <xref> doesn't work, because th...

Wow, that sound's really cool! Many thanks for the quick response and the pointer, Sorin.

Hi, We've been using Smart Paste for converting some Word content to DITA, which works as promised. However, we use a specialized DTD which for example requires <li> items to include a <p> tag. Therefore we would like to override the default Smart Paste behavior. Is that possible? And if, how? I've ...

Hi Adrian,

Many thanks for the quick reply and the workaround.

Hi, I often bookmark pages from the online user guide, for example http://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/ug-author/#topics/dg-visibility-css-extension.html Unfortunately, the bookmark only says "Oxygen XML Author 16.0" and doesn't give a clue regarding the content of that page, probably due to the ...

Thanks for the quick reply, Radu.

Is it possible to use Firebug Lite (https://getfirebug.com/firebuglite) with oXygen? This is just a JavaScript file so shouldn't be too difficult to make this available in Author mode. This would help editing and debugging CSS tremendously.

Kind regards,
Frank

Thanks for this information, Radu.

Frank

Hi Radu, thanks for the quick reply. You are right, having <project> as root element should be enough to identify an Ant file. However, I was wondering, because when opening for example [Oxygen XML Author 15 program folder]\frameworks\dita\DITA-OT\build.xml , Xerces is complaining about wrong parent...

Hi,

Of course there are many kinds of build files around, but can I make oXygen recognize any build.xml file as being an Ant file by default?

TIA
Frank

Thanks for the quick response. I don't quite know, hardly anybody uses the Legacy PDF transform anymore, ... I know, I know ... but we have inherited the whole customized transformation from our customer and will be stuck with it, at least for the near future :? However, if the Legacy PDF is hamperi...

Hi, We still use the Legacy PDF transformation for historical reasons in one of our projects. We've now started using key references, putting all the key definitions in a separate map file. If a separate DITA map is created that contains only key definitions, it should have the @processing-role attr...

Thanks for the thorough explanation, Radu! We made other customizations to the build file as well, so your information will help us find the best approach to integrate them into the external OT.

Kind regards,
Frank

Hi Radu, Thanks to your hints I now can run Ant successfully. However, now I get the following error message with the build.xml file that comes with the OT 1.7.5: BUILD FAILED C:\DITA-OT\DITA-OT1.7.5\build.xml:27: [DOTA001F][FATAL] "${transtype}" is not a recognized transformation type. Su...

Thanks for the quick response, Radu. I will try your suggestions and report back.
