Re: Allow .xpr file to specify minimum required Oxygen version and build number
Hi Cosmin,
Unfortunately we don't have a Java developer in our particular group. Maybe I can find some time next year to try to start learning it and make some progress on this. I appreciate all the links you provided, they will certainly be helpful!

Re: Suppress "buildId" to make WebHelp output deterministic
It looks like maybe I could set the following transformation parameters to an empty string value: webhelp.build.number webhelp.transformation.timestamp which leaves empty "?buildId=" references in the HTML. Or perhaps if there is an XSLT template that the HTML content ultimately flows thro...

Re: Using CSS to provide placeholder-text writer guidance in the Oxygen editor
Thanks Radu, that simplifies it quite a bit: .snps-d\/step > .topic\/p:first-child { -oxy-placeholder-content: 'instruct [result] [explain]'; } Somehow I looked through the CSS files inside the Oxygen installation directory to try to figure this out, but I failed to simply read the documentation.

Re: View all maps that a topic is referenced in?

Hi everyone, Our DITA grammar has a <procedure> element (specialized from <ol> ) that contains <step> elements (specialized from <li> ).

Hi Radu,
You weren't kidding - this feature is enormously faster for us now - thank you!
For the sake of others, is this improvement only for RelaxNG DITA grammars, or does it apply to DTD too?
