Re: Searching Across Topics in Content Fusion

Thanks Gabriel, That's a very helpful workaround! It's not perfect, because if I'm searching and making changes as well, I have to keep going back and forth between the combined view and the edit view for individual topics. But at least your workaround makes it possible to do a combined search, and ...

Searching Across Topics in Content Fusion

It appears that the Search feature in Content Fusion only searches within the currently open topic. When someone has sent me a large number of topics to review, it would be very useful if I could do a search through all the topics. Thanks.

In-Topic Display of Relationship Links

Hi, It would be very helpful if the editing pane in Author mode would include a display of the relationship table links that will render for that topic when a transform is run. Because the links really reside in the ditamap, the display in Author mode would have to be a read-only region, probably hi...

To help manage reuse, and promote communication between writers, it would be awesome if Oxygen XML Author could include an "Affected Ditamaps Panel." For whatever topic is currently open in the editing pane, this panel would instantly list all ditamaps that use that topic, directly or indi...

Warn that a File Being Moved/Renamed Will Not Be Refactored

1. Although I have Master Files enabled, I recently cut and pasted a graphic in the Project pane to a different folder, and Oxygen didn't update links to the graphic. It appears that the graphic in question was not part of any DITA map hierarchy, although it was used by some orphan topics. In a case...

Re: Refactoring > Move Resource for Multiple Files

We had success with Radu's suggestion. One of my colleagues created a plugin that uses XSLT to output files containing all the topics and images used in the DITA map hierarchy. Then we are able to cut and paste these into the filter in the Project pane and move the files easily. Thanks again for you...

Hi, We're using Oxygen Author with Sourcetree. We have about 10,000 topics that are in incorrect folders, and we want to move them to different folders without breaking links. Is there any safe way to do this except by selecting each topic one by one in the Project pane and doing Refactoring > Move ...

Re: Improve Spellcheck for Multiple Files

Hi Radu,
I tried "Open Map in editor with resolved topics", and while it is useful for learning new words, it doesn't seem to let me correct any actual misspellings in that mode. So my original feature request would still be an improvement. Thanks.

Split a Table in Two

It would be really great if you could right-click in a row in a table and choose "Split Table." The table would be split into two tables, with the division occurring before the current row. A lot of authoring tools provide a feature like this. Thanks.

I've been launching "Check Spelling in Files" from the DITA Map Manager. It's a useful feature, but one thing about it is frustrating. The list of misspelled words is frozen in time, and you have to open the affected topics one at a time. This means that if there is a particular word that ...
