[oXygen-user] Inserting child elements automatically

Wed Feb 15 10:17:31 CST 2023

I was following along with Frank's questions.

My interest was in editing the author action insert.url.reference for a web link by adding something like  inside of the XREF element. It doesn't look like any of the arguments for ro.sync.ecss.extensions.dita.link.InsertXrefOperation lets you insert a fragment. Is it correct that I should proceed to the involving the DITA extension framework or is there another method that makes more sense to you?

Thanks,

Cody

Hi Frank,

Let's split your use cases in two:

1) Inserting elements using Oxygen's actions (toolbars, menus)

2) Inserting elements using the content completion window.

1)

Let's take table insertion for example:

If you edit your DITA framework extension that is defined in the Preferences->"Document Type Association" page, it has an "Author=>Actions" tab.

If you edit the action "insert.table", it calls an operation named "ro.sync.ecss.extensions.dita.topic.table.InsertTableOperation" with certain parameters. One of the parameters is named "cellFragment", you can set its value to "<p/>".

There are other ways to change a table, for example insert a new column, insert a new row. So actions like "insert.table.row.below" or "insert.table.column.after" which also need to be changed accordingly.

2) Inserting elements like <info> using the content completion window.

Your DITA extension framework customization can contain a "cc_config.xml" file which defines that for certain elements, if they are inserted, another element should be inserted inside them as well:

Hope this helps.

Hi list,

Whenever this is valid, I wrap text in a <p> element. I would like oXygen to automatically insert <p> as a child element when inserting <table>, <simpletable> (for the table cells of course), <info>, <stepresult>, <stepxmp>... and many more. How do I do this?

Regards,

Frank
