[oXygen-user] Way to Open Files that Start with "." on OS X/Linux?

[Sorin Ristache]

Hello,

Version 9.3 which will be released next week will add an option "Show
hidden files and directories" which will enhance the file chooser dialog
with the requested capability. Until the release you should use the
Archive Browser view available in the development snapshot kit of Oxygen
9.3 that you already have. With that kit you can apply XSLT processing
to files that start with "." without extracting them from the archive.
Just open the file in the XML editor panel and use ${currentFileURL} in
the transformation scenario or right click on the file in the Archive
Browser view, select "Copy location" in the right click menu and paste
the URL of the file in the transformation scenario.


Regards,
Sorin
