This must be simple, but I cannot find the solution. I can use the Open/Find Resource command to search for a specific topic within my DITA Map. From the search results, I can double-click to open the topic. But I'd like to know where in my map is the topic located. How can I do this?

This is a follow-up to a problem I posted several months ago: https://www.oxygenxml.com/forum/topic21555.html It was suggested that I debug the CSS using instructions from here: https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/versions/22.1/ug-pdf-css/topics/dcpp_debugging_the_css.html#dcpp_debugging_the_css However, ...

My project uses two DITIVAL files to toggle between terminology used for two area of our product. They are used for shared topics where only a name differs. For example, we tag text with props="area1" and props="area2" . We then use two DITIVAL files that contain: <prop action="exclude" att="props" ...

I need to do a massive search & replace in my project to uppercase specific terms. However, I only want to change the visible text, as seen in Author mode. Not text that is part of directory paths or file names, as seen in Text mode. Is this possible to do?

Thanks for the info. Now I'm having a difficult time trying to identify which ".css" file to add this code snippet.

Is there a default .css that Oxygen uses for PDF? Or do I need to create a new custom .css for PDF?

How do I prevent a line break within a codeblock paragraph in my PDF?

I was searching for an equivalent to Word's "Keep lines together" option, but I can't find one.

Thank you for the tips, Julien. I will try those when I get a chance.

I can rule out a missing font, because the correct font is used elsewhere as shown in my example.

I have OxygenXML installed on both a Linux desktop and Macbook Pro. The Linux box is correctly configured to produce PDFs like how we want it. However it's been more of a chore to get the Mac to produce correct PDFs. I've reached a point where the Mac almost produces the same output. But there is a ...

Hello...just wondering if this topic is still being reviewed?

Radu, I was not able to reproduce this error on a small sample project. I'll ignore it for now, as the impact is very minimal.

I am trying to get certain topics to start on a new page in my PDF. I found this page with instructions: https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/versions/20.1/ug-pdf-css/topics/dcpp_page_breaking.html It tried step 3 under "Page Breaks": In your DITA topic, set the @outputclass attribute on the topic root (or...

When I validate my project, I see a slew of informational warnings like this: "Topic <name> is referenced in the DITA map as "resource-only". Any cross reference to it will result in a broken link" I found a response back in 2017 that seems to address this: https://www.oxygenxml.com/forum/topic14262...

Hi Radu. Yes--I am often frustrated by the fact that my keyboard shortcuts stop working in Oxygen. For example, CMD-X, CMD-V, etc. stops working for cut and paste. I will try your CMD-Tab trick to see if that helps. I have experienced issues where OxygenXML will just "freeze" for about 10 seconds an...

Very strange--I tried it again just now and I cannot reproduce the problem. The marked content is being hidden.

Perhaps it was a random glitch in my system? My Mac and Oxygen have been experiencing random freezes lately.

In my project, I've defined several props, including one called "PDF Hide", which shows as props="pdf-hide" in the code. In my PDF transformation, I have set the filter to "Exclude from output all elements with": props = pdf-hide props = PDF Hide At work on my Linux machine, the props filtering is w...

Thanks, Radu. I tried changing the colour of this grey background in the preferences, but gave up after several tries. It appears to be uneditable?

That is a good, concise explanation, Radu! It makes sense to me.

Ironically, it's much easier for me to comprehend your "if not using keys" example. Sounds natural to me. Maybe it's because this is how I did this before, prior to DITA!

Thank you, Radu! It turns out that my "Link with editor" button was turned off. This is exactly what I wanted. I even figured out how to change the colour of the highlight in the ditamap to make it more obvious. On a related note, why are all the topics within a ditamap (in the Maps Manager) highlig...

I have a very common problem, but haven't figured out if there is a feature to help me out. If not, this is a good feature request. It's very simple: I open my user manual with resolved topics in the editor. The manual could be 100 pages or more. I scroll through the editor, reviewing the resolved t...

Thanks, Radu. Chris has summarized the enhancement request well. Right now, it's unfeasible to work with ditamaps with different root maps simultaneously. On a related issue, I never really understood keyrefs and the advantages of using them. Seems a lot more hassle to me when they keep breaking bec...

I am working with different ditamaps in the Map Manager and I have different topics open. One annoying thing I've encountered is when I switch between ditamaps, I must also constantly remember to change the root map. If I don't, my open topics suddenly start showing a slew of "Key not found" as the ...

Yes, things worked normally again when I changed the DITA Type Document from " DITA " to " *DITA* ", or when I changed it to the actual custom DITA document that I had created (it's better to use "*DITA*" though). Radu said the preferences should have defaulted to "*DITA*" in the first place, but mi...

Thanks Radu, that worked! Turns out I had created a new DITA document type based on your solution to another question I had (about forcing the editor to do line breaks, even in a code block). This broke the link to the profiling attributes. Oddly enough, my Preferences were showing just " DITA " as ...

Until today, I was able to apply profiling attributes by right-clicking the selected text and choosing Edit Profiling Attributes . But for whatever reason, I just see "There are no attribute conditions defined" when I do this. When I click "Configure profiling attributes and values", the Preferences...

I have noticed that text within <codeblock> tags do not line wrap in the editor. When compiled as WebHelp, they also do not line wrap unless there is an explicit line break within the code. But this code does wrap when PDF is the output. My question: It was probably by design that code blocks do not...

I understand the that "<shortdesc>" element is used to display tooltip text when you hover over a topic in WebHelp. Most of the time it works, but I've seen instances where the displayed tooltip contains garbled text. I've check the <shortdesc> contents and nothing seems to be amiss. That is, unless...

I am receiving this error "The content of elements must consist of well-formed character data or markup". It's repeated five times for a single line in my topic. I can't figure out what this means--the OxygenXML validator isn't helping.

Please see the attached screenshot.

Yes, using the "Restrict to XPath" option worked. I never would have figured this out myself--talk about non-obvious!

Can't you make a search that actually searches ALL the text in a dita topic? A simple text string search is all I need.

Thanks Radu. I have attached a screenshot showing my Find settings. I believe I've made it as liberal as I could, yet I still get: Scanned Files: 357 Occurrences: 0 I copied the conkeyref[/b] string directly from my topic and I know there are many many instances of this string in my project. I canno...

This problem has vexed me ever since I started using OxygenXML: how do I search for specific XML code? For example, I want to find all occurrences of: conkeyref="corp-vars/corp" And replace it with: conkeyref="strings-corp/corp" I've tried different options under "Find/Replace in Files", but I can't...
