Hello, I believe you are referring to the static content that is presented before/after an indexterm element. This content is added in the CSS so all you have to do is edit ${oxygenInstallDir}/frameworks/docbook/css/docbook.css and remove the following two rules: indexterm:before { content: "In...

Hello Shabeer, Most likely you are not seeing the dialog because you are instantiating a new display. You could just get the existing one Display.getDefault() or just use an org.eclipse.jface.dialogs.Dialog like in the code below: package simple.documentation.framework.operations; import org.eclipse...

Hello Shabeer, The exception tells you should perform a specific action on the SWT thread. The full exception should be available in Eclipse Error Log view. I don't know exactly how your code is intended to work but I suspect you are trying to modify/update the GUI from a thread. If these type of si...

Hello Shabeer, The reason you are not seeing the class is because you declared it as an abstract class so it can't be instantiated. ro.sync.ecss.extensions.api.AuthorOperation is an interface and in order for your custom operation to work properly you have to implement all of its methods. The dialog...

Hi Shabeer, Since you're having a Maven the easiest way to create a jar would be to use the Maven phases. You can invoke the contextual menu on the .pom file (in Eclipse) and select Run as->Maven Install . After the execution ends you will find a jar file in {projectDirectory}/target/ . Another way ...

Hello, The API you are using (WSXMLTextEditorPage) is intended for when the text page is the active page. I suspect that in your situation the author page is active. You can handle both cases like this: String currentPageID = editorAccess.getCurrentPageID(); Object[] values = null; if (EditorPageCon...

Hello, I can confirm this behavior. As I see it, we are just at the beginning with the cell selection. The main use case for it right now is to invoke the "Table Properties..." action on all of those cells. But in time we will add more and more uses for it. Let me see if I understood your ...

Hello Vince, The reason is that the oxygen.jar from the SDK is a subset of the oxygen.jar distributed in an Oxygen installation. It has all the API classes needed to compile the extensions as well as all the code needed to run the author component/applet. The solution is to make the Maven project us...

Hello, Just in case anyone else bumps into a similar issue this how Dirk managed to solve the issue: 1. delete archetype-catalog.xml from user.home/.m2 (it's next to settings.xml) 2. open a console, go to a test directory and run the following command: mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeGroupId=com.o...

Hello Shabeer, Yes, you can just just take the source files that interest you. For example you can: 1. copy InsertlinkOperation inside *oxygen-sample-framework/src/main/java*. Prior to that you might want to create the correct package location for this class. Because this class has reference to othe...

Hello Patrick,

I'm sorry but I don't have a solution for you. The source code for the dialog is not public and it uses a lot of obfuscated code.

Best regards,
Alex

Hi Shabeer, I'm glad to hear you solved the problem. You should focus on the oxygen-sample-framework sub-module. Inside samples/Oxygen Default Frameworks/ you can find the source files for the build-in frameworks extensions. Here is what you can do: 1. copy the files you need inside oxygen-sample-fr...

Hello Patrick,

Unfortunately the dialog is not customizable through the API. You will have to implement one starting from scratch. What did you want to change in it, though?

Best regards,
Alex

Hi Denis, Like my colleague Dan said, right now you have to post process the fragment. What I wanted to add is that you could just execute a replace on the existing string. Something like this: AuthorDocumentFragment fragment = documentController.createDocumentFragment(authorNode, copyContent); Stri...

Hello Dirk,

First thing to check is if the repository http://www.oxygenxml.com/maven is correctly added to .m2/settings.xml. If you send us settings.xml on support@oxygenxml.com we can also take a look to see if there's any problems on how the repository is declared.

Best regards,
Alex

Hi Shabeer, I'm not sure what happened. Are the archives corrupted? can you open them manually? If you've managed to create the sample project then your maven should be configured correctly. Please try this procedure: - delete the directory C:/Users/mu258770/.m2/repository/com/oxygenxml - Go to Ecli...

Hello Gary, First of all, you should make sure that you've saved the extension as external, for example in: OXYGEN_INSTALL_DIR\frameworks\ext_dita\ext_dita.framework This new ext_dita folder should contain all additional resources that your framework requires. All of your authors already have the bu...

Hi,

Please see my answer on thread XML menu customization.

Best regards,
Alex

Hi, I recommend to start by reading Eclipse IDE Integration . This topic will guide you on how to create a Maven based SDK based project. After you follow the procedure you should focus on project oxygen-sample-eclipse-plugin . In this project there is plugin.xml . You should add in it something lik...

Hello Denis, My colleague Radu is currently away on a conference so I will try to help you while he's not here. This node is a reference not so you are probably inside a conref-ed content. I tried the same scenario and I didn't get an exception. This exception can happen if this node is not part of ...

Hello Martin, The first use of the variable is the correct one: ${frameworkDir(TEI P5)} Judging form the error message I tend to believe that the parameter is not actually received by the ANT process (so no connection with the use of the $frameworkDir variable). To see if this assumption is correct,...

Hello Sébastien, No, I don't think the size of the framework file is to blame. Do you have custom form controls or are just using the built-in ones? This bad performance happens when you type some characters? When you hover the form controls or scrolling through the document? I suggest profiling a b...

Hello Dirk, Well, all of us are using Eclipse and we have a number of topics in our documentation that describe how to use Eclipse for various tasks. Starting with version 16.0 the SDK we have a Maven repository for the SDK and we found an Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers very helpful when working...

Hello Dirk, I don't have much knowledge of such conversions from C# to Java. Searching on-line does produce some tools that do that but I can't really envision how that would work. Our API is Java based and in the code you write you have to use this API, is not like you just write a generic C# code ...

Hello Dirk, Unfortunately I can't think of a way to do that... Just to make things clearer, you want this because the XPath language in itself imposes limitations or just because it is convoluted to express some complex things? What you can currently do is to move this code from the CSS to a StylesF...

Hello, You can get the possible attribute of an element (without it being actually in the document) like this: WhatElementsCanGoHereContext whatElementsCanGoHereContext = authorSchemaManager.createWhatElementsCanGoHereContext(offset); List<CIElement> whatElementsCanGoHere = authorSchemaManager.whatE...

Hello, There is no such API method to search for a text, but you can implement one yourself with the help of the API. I'm talking about using a TextContentIterator to iterate through all the text intervals. For each interval you can get the text and search for the token or apply a regular expression...

Hello, You are correct, you need to create a custom AuthorOperation. You should start with the Author Framework Development procedure. After following the procedure needed to install the oxygen SDK , you should focus on project oxygen-sample-framework . This project contains a sample framework and i...

Hello Frank, 1. Using the multiple scenarios approach, you must have two scenarios: - one scenario that takes the current file, transforms it and saves the output in a predefined location. For example to ${userHome}/toBeProcessed.dita . - the second scenario, a DITA type scenario, modified to take a...

Hello, The fact that the Project Options radio button is selected was not an intended behavior. Just an annoying side effect that we didn't notice. I'll add a request to investigate the issue. If you put multiple *.xpr , *.xml file inside the preferences folder, only one of them will be loaded. Whic...
