How to modify built-in code fragments?

[Frank Ralf]

Hi,

When adding a new <hazardstatement> element, Oxygen automatically adds the sub-structure like so:

Code: Select all

<hazardstatement>
        <messagepanel>
           <typeofhazard></typeofhazard>
           <howtoavoid></howtoavoid>
        </messagepanel>
 </hazardstatement>

How/Where can I modify that code fragment to also include a <consequence> element?

Best regards,
Frank

Hi Frank,
One option if you have a DITA DTD/RNG specialization would be to modify the schema and declare "consequence" as a required child of hazardstatement. Probably now it is declared as an optional child.
Another option would be to have a custom content completion configuration file:
https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/versions/ ... ually.html
and declare inside it:

Code: Select all

<elementProposals path="hazardstatement" insertElements="hazardstatement consequence"/>

and yet another possibility, replace in the content completion window the "hazardstatement" element with a custom Author action:

Hi Radu,

Thanks for the pointers. We don't want to touch the schema because even if we highly recommend to use the "consequence" element, we don't want to make it required. So we will go one of the other routes. I had already thought about the "Author Action" way but had forgotten about the custom content completion configuration file.

Best regards,
Frank

Hi,

I created a custom configuration file cc_config_ext.xml as described in https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/versions/ ... ually.html with the following content, which does the trick:

Code: Select all

<elementProposals path="messagepanel" insertElements="typeofhazard consequence howtoavoid" />

This creates the desired structure:

Code: Select all

<hazardstatement>
    <messagepanel>
        <typeofhazard />
        <consequence />
        <howtoavoid />
    </messagepanel>
</hazardstatement>

Thanks again for your kind help!
