Hi Neil, Your AuthorSchemaAwareEditingHandlerAdapter.handlePaste() code gets called while a compound edit is still opened (in order to have the Undo action undo all changes, both delete and insert). Please try to use this API method to cancel the edit: ro.sync.ecss.extensions.api.AuthorDocumentContr...

Hi Sébastien, The author component automatically validates the XML document while it is modified. The validation markers appear on the validation stripe located near the vertical scroll bar. The problem is that a toolbar "Validate" button would have to present the problems in a list and fo...

Hi Sébastien, If you open an XML file in the standalone version of Oxygen XML Author you will see that it can be edited in three pages: Text (showing the XML as it is), Grid (showing the tree structure of the document) and Author (visual XML editing). The Author Component can edit the XML only in th...

Hi Neil, Indeed Oxygen adds the ENTER entry if the current element is regarded as space-preserve either by the associated schema or by the CSS. You have the possibility to remove the ENTER entry from the content completion window but it will be removed in all contexts. Just edit the document type, i...

Hi Sebastien,

Sorry, but we do not have such a list.
If the Author Component is enough for you, then you should probably go in this direction as the price for a commercial license is half the price of a license of XML Author.

Radu

Hi Neil, Maybe you could add a caret listener and invoke the action which starts the content completion when the caret moves to a certain context, something like: authorComponentProvider.getAuthorAccess().getEditorAccess().addAuthorCaretListener(new AuthorCaretListener() { public void caretMoved(Aut...

Hi Sebastien, Or you could do both :). Probably you could have a lot of common Java code for both integrations. If you develop a plugin for XML Author, you will have a larger user base if your plugin is intended for general use. You can make the plugin available using our new update-site feature: ht...

Hi Sander,

Sorry, we have no API which would allow you to hook into the DITA Map "Validate and Check For Completeness" operation and provide your own way of resolving references.

Radu

Hi Sander, How exactly are you validating in Oxygen? When validating an opened DITA topic, Oxygen does not check to see that cross references point to existing and valid targets. This is only done when using the "Validate and check for completeness" action available in the DITA Maps Manage...

Hi, I totally agree this would add flexibility. I added this as an improvement request and will update the forum thread when this gets done. In the meantime maybe you could use XML catalogs to map resources referenced via xml-model or via xml-stylesheet to local resources: http://www.oxygenxml.com/d...

Hi, What type of XML files are you editing? Do you have a custom document type configured? Have you previously worked with our Java Author SDK? Depending on your current knowledge of our API I could give you more details. http://www.oxygenxml.com/oxygen_sdk.html#XML_Editor_Authoring_SDK I would like...

Hi Sébastien, Basically when copy/pasting content from MS Office, Excel, Open Office, these applications also set in the clipboard an XHTML content. This content is taken by Oxygen and an XSLT stylesheet is applied over it in order to convert the content to various vocabularies. I will describe how ...

Hi Simon, When I define the dependencys to it in the classpath of the Extension, I can use those classes, but they are not correctly initialized. To what Extension are you referring? When editing a document type in Oxygen there is a Classpath tab. Are you referring to it? If so, you must not add the...

Hi,

Yes, we have CSS extensions which specify that certain elements are foldable, please see the documentation here:

Hi Sébastien,

I do not understand what you mean. Could you be more explicit?

Radu

Hi Stefan,

Thanks for the details.
We'll try to modify the place where the decision is taken whether to open the HTML in the browser or in the editor to also take your use-case into account.

Radu

Hi Stefan, This is a case in which the edited file is remote and the referenced HTML is also remote and we considered that there might be a change for the user to want to edit that HTML file. Is the HTML documentation on the same server from where you open the XML file. Do you connect to the Exist s...

Hi Sébastien,

This is not possible right now, we have an improvement request for it and maybe we'll manage to add this feature in a future version.
I will update this thread when this happens.

Radu

Hi, Oxygen has an editing mode called Author which allows you to edit an XML file in a visual manner if you have an associated CSS file: http://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/ug-oxygen/index.html?q=/doc/ug-oxygen/topics/tagless-editor-introduction.html Basically besides the XML and XML Schema you would need ...

Hi Stefan, So you have local edited files which point with links to HTML pages, right? What version of Oxygen are you using? The standalone or Eclipse plugin version? And on what operating system? When clicking a link which points to binary resources like PDF, Oxygen should always use the web browse...

Hello Neal, The original bug posted by one of my colleagues on the Apple bugs list is this one: ID# 9848700 . I do not know if there is anything public though, only the owner seems to be allowed to see it. Most of our CMS clients have a switch in the HTML page which presents the classic applet if th...

Hi Neal, The behavior of the applet + JNLP on MAC OSX is exactly as you described. It was broken in one of the Java updates about one year ago and they never fixed it, there is a bug registered for this on the Apple issues list. Also the applet at http://www.oxygenxml.com/demo/AuthorDemoApplet/autho...

Hi Gary, Basically the topic in our user manual tries to explain a concrete customization situation, the case in which you want to add a company logo image in the front matter of the book. So in step (6) you start with an empty custom.xsl XSLT stylesheet and you copy to it an xslt template called cr...

Hi Neal,

Sure, just add another selector in the CSS like:

Radu

Hi Sebastien, I understand the difficulty. Unfortunately right now there is no API to easily create a DocumentPositionInfo over an AuthorNode (or for a certain offset in the Author document). We will try to add the API. A workaround for the Author page would be to add your own highlights using the A...

Hi, I do not quite understand. What exactly does the web service validation return? An XPath expression? How does it look like? If the XPath expression is valid we already have API like: ro.sync.ecss.extensions.api.AuthorDocumentController.findNodesByXPath(String, boolean, boolean, boolean) Otherwis...

Hi Sebastien, Assuming you are using a workspace access plugin, the code would be like: WSEditor currentEditorAccess = pluginWorkspaceAccess.getCurrentEditorAccess(StandalonePluginWorkspace.MAIN_EDITING_AREA); if(currentEditorAccess != null) { String currentPageID = currentEditorAccess.getCurrentPag...

Hi, Thanks for the interesting use case. In one of the future Oxygen versions we will provide a special "Review" panel showing all changes and it will also probably have certain filters like viewing all changes a certain author made or viewing changes between certain dates. We'll let you k...

Hi, There have been some discussions in the past on the DITA Users List about this: http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/dita-users/message/25321 Maybe you should also address RenderX XEP about this problem. But first you might want to try and re-save the image to JPG, maybe it is saved to another for...

Thanks Sander, We'll consider this.
