With respect to the solution based on the actions, I wasn't able to get the processing instruction to go in as a fragment. I was able to get non-placeholder text to enter just fine. Perhaps it's a css issue because the link target is shown as placeholder text
by default?</div>

It was really helpful to see both of these. I can envision several other cases where I can use both approaches to perform other tasks that I've been working on.</div>

<p>Hi,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Another option would be to cascade [1] the existing action with a a new one that inserts a comment or a placeholder that is removed once the user types text [2]:<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p><font face="monospace"><?oxy-placeholder content="Enter a title"?></font></p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>To summarize it you will have to:</p>
<p>- create one action that inserts this comment</p>
<p>- create one action based on <i>ExecuteMultipleActionsOperation [2] </i>that cascades the xref and the previous action</p>
<p>- you replace the xref action from the toolbar with this new action based on <i>
ExecuteMultipleActionsOperation</i> </p>
<p><br>

<p>Hello Cody,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Indeed the "InsertXrefOperation" Java operation does not have a parameter to specify some fixed text to insert inside the link, I added an internal issue based on your feedback. I do not have an easy workaround for you, it's possible that what you want would
be possible with a Java based extension which would somehow listen for inserted links and add that text inside the inserted link.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>But coming back to your use case which seems to be to always add custom text inside a link to a web page, I would rather suggest using a custom Schematron schema to signal as a validation error to the end user that the link is empty:</p>
<p><br>
</p>

<p><br>
</p>
<p>So a Schematron schema like this would report a user friendly warning if there is an empty link:<br>
</p>
<p></p>
<blockquote type="cite"><sch:schema xmlns:sch=<a class="x_moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="http://purl.oclc.org/dsdl/schematron">"http://purl.oclc.org/dsdl/schematron"</a> queryBinding="xslt2"<br>

<sch:pattern><br>
<sch:rule context="xref[@format='html'][@scope='external']"><br>
<sch:assert test="node()">An external link should have custom link text set inside.</sch:assert><br>
</sch:rule><br>

My interest was in editing the author action insert.url.reference for a web link by adding something like <!--Insert link text here--> 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?</div>

<p>Hi Frank,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Let's split your use cases in two:</p>
<p>1) Inserting elements using Oxygen's actions (toolbars, menus)</p>
<p>2) Inserting elements using the content completion window.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>1)<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Let's take table insertion for example:</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>If you edit your DITA framework extension that is defined in the Preferences->"Document Type Association" page, it has an "Author=>Actions" tab.</p>
<p>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/>".</p>
<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.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>2) Inserting elements like <info> using the content completion window.</p>
<p>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:</p>
<p><a class="x_x_moz-txt-link-freetext x_moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/ug-editor/topics/configure-elements-attr-cc-individually.html#configure-elements-attr-cc-individually__examples_configuring_elements">https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/ug-editor/topics/configure-elements-attr-cc-individually.html#configure-elements-attr-cc-individually__examples_configuring_elements</a></p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Hope this helps.<br>
