Thanks! This is what we needed.

Hello, We are having an issue in Web Author (version 22.1) running in Websphere traditional. Specifically, the spellcheck never returns any spelling errors. In the logs, we are seeing the following appear during a spellcheck operation: The hunspell library or dictionary could not be loaded, due to j...

Thanks for the information. Unfortunately upgrading WAS or switching software is not currently an option.

Is there an official list of supported WAS versions by Web Author release? Having that information would be really helpful.

Thanks again,

Dave

Hello, We have been using the Web Author Component 22.1 in Websphere Traditional 8.5.5.16 for some time. When attempting to run 23.1.1 in the same environment, we get the following exceptions on startup, and the Web Author application / admin fails to load: CWNEN0047W: Resource annotations on the fi...

Thank you for the information. We were able to implement your suggestion of using CSS to clue in a 508 user of the comment anchor's beginning and end. Would there be a way to somehow also implement this for validation issues as well? Thank you for adding a feature request to make the comment hover t...

Hello, we're using Web Author Component 21.1.1 with Accessibility Optimization enabled. Our 508 JAWS testing team is having a few issues related to keyboard navigation inside the Document view. Specifically, how is a visually impaired user utilizing a screen reader able to discern when the cursor is...

Thanks Cristian. I think we're OK with being able to change the default programmatically (not necessarily force it). The use-case is the custom CMS we're integrating with stores user information and preferences. We'd like to be able to read those preferences (including preference for accessibility o...

Hello,

We are using Web Author v. 22.1.

Is there any way to enable accessibility optimization automatically? We don't want users to have to manually enable it. I've looked through all the loading options and can't find this exposed.

Thank you!

Hi,

Thanks for the quick response. I'm not sure when our client will make time to provide this information, but for the moment they have worked around the issue and set their load balancer to only use one node. I'll update this thread when they're able to provide more information.

Hello, We are using Web Author 22.0 inside a client's firewall. We have been able to successfully load XML files into the editor using the following setup: embed Web Author inside iFrame with url parameter pointing to a dummy document in plugin.js, stop loading dummy document with event.preventDefau...

Thanks for the information, Radu. We'll probably go in the "custom paste image" direction.

Hello, We're attempting to use the Smart Paste functionality to be able to copy/paste graphics into XML documents utilizing a custom AuthorExternalObjectInsertionHandler with our framework. We are trying to embed the image data into the href attribute instead of inserting a reference to the graphic....

Hi, When attempting to publish a DITA topic via oXygen / DITA OT that contains greek characters in the file name, the publishing fails. I have been unable to find a solution or workaround. For example, a file having the name α.dita (greek alpha character dot dita) results in the following message in...

Hello, We're having trouble figuring out how to insert conkeyrefs in DITA topics using the Web Author. We've defined keydefs in the ditamap, and set the applicable ditamap on the document being edited using the DITA toolbar. However, we only see the option for inserting conrefs - there doesn't appea...

Thank you, I had no idea the idGenerationDefaultOptions.xml file existed. Adding the necessary DITA elements to this file in the DITA framework and uploading to the web author works, and IDs are now being auto-generated.

I was unable to find specific instructions for setting up ID generation, but I did the following. I set up DITA ID Options in the desktop editor (added "p" element to the list), then zipped up the DITA framework folder and uploaded to the web author. Then I restarted tomcat. IDs still are ...

Hi,

I'm looking for a way to enable automatic ID attribute generation for DITA documents in the web author. It doesn't look like this is currently supported.

If not, any guidance on the best way to accomplish this in the web author?

Thanks

Hi, We have a user who is unable to successfully run the Author Component Applet on the oXygen website. Here are his system specifications: java 7 45, 32-bit Windows 7 In IE 11 and Chrome 42 The applet appears to load, but no document is loaded into the editor - he gets a blank editor with "a w...

Hi Radu, Thanks for the information. I was able to remove references to the FOP, truezip, httpclient, icu4j, and batik jars (we're not using SVG graphics) from the JNLP. However, removing all of the batik jars caused an error - apparently the org.w3c.dom.ElementTraversal class located in batik-ext-1...

Hi, We're using version 16 of the applet with the DITA customization, and are attempting to shorten the overall load time. To this end, is there any information you can provide as to which jar files referenced by the JNLP are purely optional, framework-specific, or OS-specific? I know that the JNLP ...

Hi RAdu, Thanks for your prompt response. I've followed up with the client and they seem to be having problems with Java 7 in particular, although it doesn't seem like the CPU utilization issue is still a problem. Once they get back with me, I'll start a new thread. If they're able to consistently r...

Hi Radu,

They are able to replicate the same high CPU load on the default applet you sent. Is there any other information we can give you?

Thanks,

Dave

We've noticed extremely high CPU usage on Mac machines running the oXygen applet v. 16.1. We are able to reproduce the issue on two Macs. Machine #1: MacBookAir5,2 OS X Yosemite 10.10.2 1.8 Ghz Intel Core i5 Java JRE 1.8.0_31 Chrome 40.0.2214.115 Safari 8.0.3 Machine #2: MacbookAir5,1 OS X Yosemite ...

Hi Radu, Thank you for the suggestion! We were able to implement a simplified find dialog using AuthorDocumentController.getTextContentIterator(int, int) and WSAuthorEditorPageBase.select(int, int) . We also invoke WSAuthorEditorPageBase.scrollToRectangle(Rectangle) after selecting the text to make ...

Hello, We are using the oXygen Author Component v. 15.2 and have a requirement to show a simplified find dialog in the web editor. For the regular find/replace dialog, we map it to a toolbar button like this without a problem: WSAuthorComponentEditorPage authorPage = (WSAuthorComponentEditorPage) ed...
