[oXygen-user] Default folder for images

[mbaker]

My first thought would be to use an XML catalog to map the current URLs to the correct ones. 

As a matter of principle, I always prefer to refer to external resources with a full URL, including domain name, then use a catalog to map the URL to a local path. That way if one set of resources is moved relative to another, all I have to do to restore the connection is to update the catalog.

Subject [oXygen-user] Default folder for images 
 
Hi,
  I am currently moving from Arbortext to Oxygen and I have a bunch of DITA XMLs which have a fixed path for img src attributes (Arbortext allows one to set such folder locations in the preferences for inline display). These paths are not valid (what can I say, I used Arbortext ;-)) and I am trying to move away from this practice by converting it in to relative paths.
  In the meantime, is there any thing I can do to make this valid. I have looked at some options including:
Change path using the ChangeAttribute Author default operation (Question, is there any the operation can be triggered on document open in OxygenXML Author).
Using the Java API (Again, any way this trigger this on document open)
Is there a better way to do this?

Thanks!
Nathan

PS: I am using Oxygen 15
