[oXygen-user] DITA footnotes in Author mode

[George Bina]

Hi Frank,

I did something for a variant of TEI vocabulary used for articles, you 
can find the project
https://github.com/georgebina/jteiPlus
The notes are numbered and set on the right side as callouts and 
collapesed by default, with an inline action to be expanded.
The relevant CSS is
https://github.com/georgebina/jteiPlus/blob/master/frameworks/tei-custom/css/sideNotes.css

and you can try it online using the web author at
https://www.oxygenxml.com/oxygen-xml-web-author/app/oxygen.html?url=webdav-https%3A%2F%2Fwww.oxygenxml.com%2Foxygen-xml-web-author%2Fplugins-dispatcher%2Fwebdav-server%2Fjtei%2FDEMOjtei-8-eide-source.xml&stylesheet-titles=Footnotes&author=Anonymous&highlightedActions=%5B%7B%22id%22%3A%22Author%2FShareSession%22%7D%5D

I used z-index to bring the note you have the mouse over to the front :).

Hope this example helps!

Best Regards,
George
