     You can extend a default bundled document type (like DITA or Docbook)  
in the         Document Type Association preferences page, make  
modifications and       then share the extension with your team.      The  
steps below describe how an extension of the DITA framework which removes  
certain       elements from the content completion list can be constructed  
and shared:        Create somewhere on your disk, in a place where you have  
full write access a folder           structure like:  
custom_frameworks/dita-extension.          In the Document Type Association  
/ Locations preferences page add           in your Additional frameworks  
directories list the path to your             custom_frameworks  
folder.         In the Document Type Association preferences page select  
the             DITA document type configuration and use the              
Extend button to create an extension for it.         Give a custom name to  
the extension, for example DITA - Custom and           then change its  
Storage to external, then save it to a path like:              
path/to/.../custom_frameworks/dita-extension/dita-extension.framework.          
Make changes to the extension, for example go to the  
Author->Content             completion tab and add in the Filter - Remove  
content completion             items list elements which should not be  
presented to the end users.         Click OK to close the dialog and then  
either             OK or Apply to save the preferences            
changes.            After you perform the steps above you will have in the  
dita-extension      folder a fully functioning framework which can be  
shared with others.     The framework can then be shared with others in  
several ways:        Copy it to their [OXYGEN_DIR]/frameworks  
directory.          Create somewhere on disk a custom_frameworks folder,  
copy the           framework there and then from the Document Type  
Association /             Locations preferences page add in your Additional  
frameworks             directories list the path to the  
custom_frameworks          folder.                   Distribute the  
framework along with a project.            Follow these steps:               
On your local drive, create a directory with full write access, containing  
the                 project files and a custom_frameworks folder containing  
your                   dita-extension.               Start the application,  
go to the Project view and                 create a project. Save it in the  
newly created directory.               In the Document Type Association /  
Locations preferences                 page, select Project Options at the  
bottom of the page.               Add in the additional framework  
directories list an entry like                    
${pd}/custom_frameworks.               Add other resources to your project,  
for example you can have all your DITA                 content located  
inside the project folder.               You can then share the new project  
directory with other users. For example you can                 commit it  
to your version control system and have they update their working  
copy.                 When they open the customized project file in the  
Project view, the new                 document type becomes available in  
the list of Document Types.                                         Deploy  
the framework/document type configuration as an add-on.                      
After your team members install the framework they can check in Document  
Type         Association preferences page in the list of Document Types to  
see if the       framework is present and if it appears before the bundled  
DITA      framework (meaning that it has higher priority).
