Re: Cannot read field "result" because "fi" is null

I encountered this problem this week while troubleshooting HTML publishing for a client. I'm using oXygen Editor 24.1, but I don't think that's relevant, as I'm using an external copy of DITA OT 3.5.4 to publish, not the one that comes with oXygen Editor. In my case, the exception gets thrown by Job...

Re: File Open/Save with XSLT

I just stumbled across the topics in the online help on modifying XML documents on open and save, so it obviously can be done via a plugin.

But is there a simpler way?

Thanks,
Tim.

File Open/Save with XSLT

Adobe Framemaker has the capability to run an XSLT transform on a file when it is opened or saved.

Is there a way to do this in oxygen?

Thanks,
Tim.

Re: Row spanning for simpletables

The author typically uses a content completion window to insert the new cell element.

Re: Row spanning for simpletables

I just realized that a table provider that could update the values on a row spanning attribute would also have to insert the empty cells that get spanned.

Is this possible?

Thanks,
Tim.

Re: Row spanning for simpletables

Thanks, Radu. I see in your documentation topic "Configuring a Table Cell Span Provider" that I could extend the existing cell span provider to use a custom row span attribute. If we change the content model of our <simpletable> specialization to add a row span attribute to each cell eleme...

Row spanning for simpletables

Hi, Radu. The DITA <simpletable> content model does not provide any attribute like the CALS table @morerows attribute that enables authors to span cells across rows. However, I would like to provide this capability in the oXygen author editor for specializations of <simpletable>. Am I right in think...

Re: Adding insert table dialogs to Author view

Hi, Radu. No, you should strip it down to contain only what you need. You can also leave the DITA stuff inside it but it will not matter in any way as your framework will be used to edit only your specific set of XML files. This doesn't seem to be true. I took your suggestion and just added my custo...

Re: Adding insert table dialogs to Author view

Thanks, Radu. The Author SDK Developer Guide says: Starting with Oxygen XML Editor 10.3 version a single bundle was introduced acting as a provider for all other extensions. The individual extensions can still be set and if present they take precedence over the single provider , but this practice is...

Re: Adding insert table dialogs to Author view

Hi, Radu. Here's what I want to do for my client. As I mentioned before, I have created a custom DTD that constrains the DITA 1.2 DTD, and adds a few specializations, including three specializations of <simpletable>. I want to add author operations to support the specializations. These operations wo...

Re: Adding insert table dialogs to Author view

Hi, Radu. The <simpletable> specializations we have defined pick up the default styling of <simpletable> in the Author view, which is great, but the Author view does not seem to support the column resizing features. The user can't drag the column border to resize it, and if they change the values in...

Re: debugger profiling

I watched the video and I'm not doing anything differently.

Is profiling limited to a single XSLT document? The one I'm trying to profile imports many other stylesheets.

I have no problem with the output to source mapping; it works very well. But the profiling does not work.

Your 15.1 new features announcement says "you can convert Microsoft OOXML documents to DITA projects".

Would you mind telling us how to do that? I can't find anything about it in the user guide or in the user interface.

oXygen 13.1 just crashed and wiped out my customized transformation scenarios. I can restore from a backup made a few days ago, but I need to know where the transformation scenarios are stored, what directory and file names on Windows 7. This information is not in the oXygen documentation. It should...
