Schematron doesn't run automatically on DITA maps

I have a custom framework that integrates our Schematron rules. It works will when I open topics in Oxygen, but if I open a map (either in the map manager or the editor), it doesn't run. I have to manually select it from the Validate with... menu option. Is this by design that Schematron doesn't run...

Support change-tracking PIs in other environments

I'd be interested to know if anyone else is attempting to support Oxygen's change-tracking PIs in other environments. I need to be able to set up previews of changed content in our CMS and in our review PDFs (which sadly can't be generated from Oxygen). Matching on the PIs is no problem. Rendering t...

Save search strings

I frequently have to use regex in my searches to perform cleanup routines on files. While I know I could write some XSL to do this, it seems like allowing users to save query strings in the Find/Replace functionality would solve the problem and be a bit more elegant solution.

Re: Quick fix fails silently

Incidently, can these quick fixes be run automatically outside of the Oxygen environment? I haven't seen their use anywhere else.

Re: Quick fix fails silently

Thanks, Octavian. That worked. Still finding my way around some of the functions. I tried using matches() in the report node test as in the example, and that didn't work, so I didn't think to use it once I'd matched the substring.

Quick fix fails silently

I have a schematron rule that checks for the substring 911 in various contexts. I want to replace the string with an empty element that will be used to automatically generate the emergency number for each locale. The initial test works, but the quick fix does not. I get no error, but nothing happens...

Server-based FO Processing

We have a need to allow authors to generate PDFs with a server-based installment of RenderX. It looks like I would just add this using the External FO Processor Configuration box. Is this the right approach, or does Oxygen only support local instances of FO processors?

Re: Word counts including draft-comment

That's okay. I'm no developer, and we won't need to have the fix in place for 17.1. That's just the version our content developers are currently testing.

Re: Integrating reading-level calculators

We're using Flesch-Kincaid, but we've looked recently at other indexes that seem to provide more reliable results. We have a process that runs on both maps and topics, but really only the map reading level is useful. Just trying to determine how we might implement this in Oxygen to work as it did in...

Re: Word counts including draft-comment

That seems to work with Oxygen 20.1 but not with 17.1.

Word counts including draft-comment

We have significant constraints on content length. One of our authors noticed that the word-count utility includes all words in a topic, including draft-comments. Is there any way to control this? It seems that draft-comments should be excluded from word counts.

Thanks,

Integrating reading-level calculators

For various reasons that I won't go into here, we need to generate reading levels for our publications. This has to be done at the map level as there needs to be enough text to get a "reliable" score. I see that it's possible to integrate external tools via Tools >External Tools > Configur...

Images fail to appear in ODT output

When I generate an ODF file, the images in my map don't show. I can unzip the ODF and see that a binary is embedded, but the images don't render properly. I'm using the org.dita.odt plugin with OT1.8 and Oxygen 19.

Has anyone found a workaround for this issue?

Re: FOP generates errors for background-color

Did this, but I was looking at the wrong instances (which were not problematic). I managed to find the real problem elsewhere. Thanks.

FOP generates errors for background-color

I'm trying to set some background colors, and FOP is generating errors. It doesn't matter if I use valid color names or valid HEX values, I get this error: [fop] [ERROR] Invalid property value encountered in background-color="": org.apache.fop.fo.expr.PropertyException: file:/C:/dita-demo-...
