DITA Maps Manager Icons

[abhik]

Hi Team,
We are implementing custom panel for some references of ditamap. We want to keep the icons in custom panel consistent with icons used in DITA Maps Manager. I have checked Icons.class and it has lots of icons already defined.
How to get the particular icon used in DITA Maps Manager? (Given that I have AuthorNode object of a reference in ditamap)

Hi,
The constants from the Icons class that we use for icons in the DITA Maps Manager are these ones:

Other than that you can check if the AuthorNode you have is an AuthorElement, and if it is use the AuthorElement API to read the "class" attribute value for the node and decide on what icon to use:

Hi Radu,

Thank you for the response.

Actually this is exactly what I'm looking for. Given class attribute of node, I need to decide which icon to use.
I checked the icon list shared by you. There are lots of other icons which are being used in DITA Maps Manager. (like DITA_MAP_REF, DITA_MAP_DITAVALREF, TOPIC_HEAD_PROJECT, DITA_MAP_NAVREF etc)

Is there any public API which can help me to pick the exact icon for class attribute?
Can you please share the Oxygen logic to decide the icons?

Thanks & Regards,
Abhi_K

Hi Abhi_K,

s there any public API which can help me to pick the exact icon for class attribute?
Can you please share the Oxygen logic to decide the icons?

No, you should create your own logic. You can use the AuthorElement API to read the "class" attribute value for the node and decide based on that class attribute value what icon to display.
One more thing, when you have a topicref to a DITA concept for example:

Code: Select all

<topicref href="concept.xml"/>

The element is <topicref> but in order to decide if it refers to a DITA task/concept/topic our DITA Maps Manager attempts to parse the target "concept.xml" and extract from it the type of file and the title.
