Do you mean the list of links to the child topics that appears in the page with the content of the parent topic, after the content of the parent topic? There is no parameter for that. The list of links to the child topics should appear bby default and it can't be disabled with a parameter int eh tra...

Hello, I suggest to generate a mapping file in your application that maps the IDs to file names, like: 1001 file1.html 1002 file2.html 1003 file2.html#marker1 You can create also a new file called index.htm or index_custom.html that is located in the same directory as index.html and includes JavaScr...

Hi,

Your request is not clear. Do you want to change the marker for list items of an unordered list from the default character, which is a bullet, to a different character? Where do you want to change it: in Oxygen Author editing mode, in PDF output, in XHTML output, etc?

Hi, Did you look at the layout masters created in the file OXYGEN_INSTALL_DIR\frameworks\dita\DITA-OT\plugins\org.dita.pdf2\cfg\fo\layout-masters.xsl ? Maybe you can customize one of these layout masters for forcing a topic included on the first level in the DITA map to start on an odd page. I think...

Hello, You have to provide the path to the Webhelp page relative to the output base directory ( file:///C:/Users/joe/path/webhelp in your case) as an anchor that follows the index.html file name. The relative path of the Webhelp page is necessary for loading it in the right-side frame of the browser...

Hi,

The DOCX DITA transformation comes from the Dita 4 Publishers plugin which is still not finished (it is in beta state). Please can you send us a sample DOCX document for reproducing this error?

Hello, I think adding one or maybe two new variables like the existing ones called 'Body odd footer' and 'Body even footer' , which you already found in the common/vars/en.xml file, should work. You should insert the content of a variable in the footer of the document as the content of the 'Body odd...

Hello, It is not clear what you have in custom.xsl . Do you have the following in your custom.xsl file? <xsl:attribute-set name="common.title"> <xsl:attribute name="font-family">sans-serif</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> If yes, please note that this is a default setting in ...

That is correct, in the Webhelp output there is no label like Figure [x] preceding the figure title, and a link to the figure does not include any figure label. In Webhelp as in all other XHTML-based formats generated from DITA XML sources the text of the link is simply the text between the link tag...

Hello,

What Oxygen version do you use? How is an internal link (scope=local) opened after you add the code? What is the HTML code for internal links in the HTML output pages?

Hello,

There is an example in the User Manual for adding an image on a page of the PDF output. I think you should follow a similar process for adding a background image on a page.

The surface form (the content of the glossSurfaceForm element) and the abbreviated form (the content of the glossAcronym element) of the glossary term can be suppressed with a custom CSS set in the args.css param of the Webhelp transformation, for example: .glossSurfaceForm, .glossAlt { display: non...

Hello, I have a glossterm topic defined like this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <!DOCTYPE glossentry PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DITA Glossary//EN" "glossary.dtd"> <glossentry id="glossentry_k5k_rdg_r4"> My map file has this: <glossref keys="...

Hello, Many files need to be modified in the Webhelp transformation for adding a tab in the left panel: some XSLT files and JavaScript files. As an alternative the glossary terms can be (and usually are) grouped under the same heading/title in the map so that they appear as a group of links in the C...

Hi Mathieu, You started off in the right direction, you just need to follow through with all unneeded fo:simple-page-master and fo:page-sequence elements, and most importantly be consistent about it: one simple page master must be removed/commented out together with all page sequences that refer to ...

Hello, You can change the internal links ( scope="local" ) to open in a separate window by replacing this code: <xsl:template match="*" mode="add-link-target-attribute"> <xsl:if test="@scope='external' or @type='external' or ((@format='PDF' or @format='pdf') and no...

I think a grammatically correct version of these messages is this: PDFX001W - No index entry was found which is closing the range at ID="%1". PDFX002W - Multiple index entries were found which are starting the range at ID="%1" but only one index entry was found which is closing i...

Hello, These are index term related errors . It seems you inserted some indexterm elements in your DITA topics with start and/or end attributes that can't be matched to other indexterm elements. Can you send us or post here some DITA topics that show these errors in a DITA transformation? Regards, S...

Hello, You could copy all visible content in Author mode (Ctrl+A in Author mode for Select All and Ctrl+C for Copy ), create a new file of TEXT type (Ctrl+N, type " text " in the New dialog) and paste the copied content in the TEXT file (Ctrl+V for Paste ). This copy and paste operation wi...

Hello, Oxygen's DITA WebHelp transformation creates two WebHelp main pages that enclose the same actual WebHelp content: index.html which uses XHTML internal frames ( idiv elements) and index_frames.html which uses XHTML framesets. The JavaScript warning is displayed in Chrome only for the index.htm...

Hi Maggie, Yes, deleting the user comments from the Webhelp table on the MySQL server is the way to go. If you have a different database name for each guide it is even simpler: just drop the whole Webhelp database from the MySQL server. Otherwise (if you merge all user comments from all guides into ...

Hello, You can avoid the installation procedure in the browser and in the MySQL database for all but one of the 400+ guides by duplicating the configuration file that results from the first installation for the rest of the 400+ installations. However this is possible only if either: you use the same...

It's closer to the mark but you did not check the value of the parameter in the XSL file. You are just receiving the parameter args.watermark in the Ant build.xml file but you are not receiving it and handling it in the XSL file. First you should change the parameter in the Ant file to: <param name=...

The location that I specified is correct for DITA-OT 1.8.4 in Oxygen 16.0. I agree with the position of the figure description. It should be in the same <p> element as the figure title. I reported the problem to the DITA-OT project. I already corrected the problem in the DITA-OT which will be includ...

Hi, There are many differences between the two DITA-OT plugins, legacypdf and pdf2 , in both the source code (and in the options for customizing the source code) and in the PDF output. The main difference I think is that the pdf2 plugin has a very different customization mechanism that was missing i...

It is a separator between the figure title and figure description. If you want to omit it just remove the following line from the template with name="place-fig-lbl" : <xsl:text>. </xsl:text> which is line 3765 in file: OXYGEN_INSTALL_DIR\frameworks\dita\DITA-OT\plugins\org.dita.xhtml\xsl\x...

Is it possible to tie printing of the watermark to the args.draft parameter in the PDF transformation, so that I can turn it on and off easily? As it is, it always prints. The args.draft parameter is used in DITA-OT for draft-comment elements, not for watermark images. It is not easy to extend this...

All works well except for the topic above. What is the expected result and what is the wrong real result? What does not work correctly? Up until now, each time I installed an update - I had to save the org.dita.pdf2 directory and copy it back after the install for my customizations to work. I think...

Hi,

You can modify the DITA elements that are created by the Paste action in a DITA topic in the file:

OXYGEN_INSTALL_DIR\frameworks\dita\resources\xhtml2dita.xsl

You can insert a <p> element in every place where a <li> element is created in the above XSLT file.
