DITA Task Steps as Diagrams

Post by sljohns »

I downloaded the DITA Task Steps as Diagrams plugin from here https://blog.oxygenxml.com/topics/task- ... agram.html. The plugin integrated successfully. However, neither the html5 or xhtml transforms creates the diagram. Is there an extra step to convert task steps to diagrams? Is there an additional plugin that needs to be installed?

Hi,
I assume you followed the steps here to copy and install the "com.oxygenxml.task.diagram" folder to the DITA OT "plugins" folder and you did not encounter any error when running the "DITA OT Integrator" transformation from Oxygen:
https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/ug-editor ... lugin.html
In the Oxygen Preferences->"DITA / Logging" page you can select the "Show console output->Always" radio button and save the settings.
Then run the transformation scenario in Oxygen and you should get a "DITA OT" console tab view at the bottom of Oxygen containing lots of logging information from the DITA OT publishing engine. Maybe you can save the entire logging output to disk, zip it and send it to us (support@oxygenxml.com).
Ideally you should initially work with a small DITA Map containing a single task just to see how this works on a small example.
Regards,
Radu
