Version 2.0 of Oxygen Content Fusion is the latest
major release for the innovative collaboration tool that is designed to improve any
documentation review process.
Some examples of improvements added in this version include the ability to create new
tasks and files directly in the Content Fusion browser interface, a DITAVAL file can now be
attached to a task so that content is filtered based upon its defined conditional profiling
attribute values, a new option is available for non-DITA file types to automatically include
files that are referenced within files attached to a task, various security improvements
were added, and more.
Content Fusion
Create a New Task Directly in the Browser Interface
It is possible to create a task directly in the Content Fusion browser
interface. This means that the task creation process is available to anyone who has access
to the browser interface, even if they do not have access to
Oxygen XML Editor/Author.
Create a New File Directly in the Browser Interface
If you are the owner of a task (any task that you created or were assigned as
an owner), you now have the ability to create a new file from a list of templates and the
newly created file will automatically be added to the current task. This means that
subject matter experts can create content drafts directly from a web browser and send them
to the Content Author to be integrated into the documentation.
Filter Content in Uploaded Files Based on a DITAVAL File
A DITAVAL file can now be attached to a task so that the content in the
uploaded DITA topics is filtered based upon the conditional profiling attribute values
defined in the DITAVAL file. If a condition set is selected in the DITA Maps Manager, the
corresponding DITAVAL file will automatically be selected in the task.
Option to Detect Files Referenced in Attached Non-DITA Files
For tasks that contain any file types other than DITA (for example, DocBook
files), an option is now available to detect any files referenced within the attached
documents and automatically upload those referenced files in the task. This means that the
Reviewers have access to the referenced content.
See Avatars for All Users Who Have the Current Document Open
The avatars for all of the users who are currently accessing a particular file
are shown in the left panel of the visual editor as well as in the
Task Details page. You can hover over an avatar to see the names of the
users and you can see which user is currently editing the file because there is a red
border around that avatar.
Configure Authentication to Accept Only LDAP Accounts
In previous versions, an admin could enable LDAP Authentication and users could
log in using their LDAP credentials or sign up using their email address. Now, the
Use LDAP Authentication option only allows LDAP credentials. However,
there is now a new option
(Allow both LDAP accounts and standard email accounts) so that users can
still log in using either type.
Component Updates
Oxygen XML Web Author 22.0
The visual editor that is based on Oxygen XML Web Author was updated to version
22.0, which contains numerous editing, performance, and security
improvements.
