Oxygen XML Forum

Hi Simon, Our internal preferences are stored in a custom structure resembling a map. The standalone version of Oxygen stores the internal preferences as an XML file in a special folder in the user home. The Eclipse version of Oxygen stores the same XML content (serialized from our internal map) usi...

Hi Heather, You correctly commented out the call template. But from what the error looks like I think that you made one extra modification in the template: <xsl:template name="insertLinkShortDesc"> which made an <xsl:choose> construct invalid so you should revert that change. Regards, Radu

Hi Susanne, What exact Oxygen version are you using? The error you reported is probably displayed in the Author page. Did you try to also publish the DITA Map to PDF using the standard DITA Open Toolkit transformation scenarios provided by Oxygen? I tested using Oxygen 13.2 with a small topic like t...

Hi Amber,

I replied on the DITA Users List:

http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/dita ... sage/26971

So we'll probably continue the discussion there.

Hi Heather, You have probably set the parameter args.fo.include.rellinks to all because by default rel links are not shown in the PDF output. There does not seem to be a parameter to control the inclusion of the short description along with the link. In the XSLT stylesheet: OXYGEN_INSTALL_DIR/framew...

Hi, The error obtained when using RenderX XEP: [Fatal Error] xep.xml:169:4: The markup in the document following the root element must be well-formed. seems to indicate that the xep.xml configuration file used by RenderX is not wellformed. Did you make any manual changes to it? You could try to open...

Hi Kevin, So basically you can either implement the toolbar using standard HTML form buttons and then call Author Component API using JavaScript or implement the toolbar as a Java toolbar inside the Author Component Applet. The sample applet project for which Mihaela already sent the links contains ...

Hi Matt, Indeed a code template gets presented in the content completion list no matter in which element the caret is placed. There is another workaround which could work for you: In the Document Type Association preferences page, edit the DITA document type. In the Author tab you can define a new a...

Hi Craig,

My initial suggested approach was a mix of using the Outline to cut, then moving focus back to the editing area, moving the caret in the right location and pasting.
Indeed using the breadcrumb is another good approach.

Radu

Hi, Basically configuration files like: OXYGEN_INSTALL_DIR/frameworks/dita/DITA-OT/demo/fo/cfg/common/vars/en.xml contain some constructs like: <variable id="Preface first header"/> But there are not XSLT variables, the XML files are simple configuration files which are used from the XSLT ...

Hi Craig, Indeed in the Eclipse plugin you cannot drop nodes as siblings of other nodes (thing which is possible in the Oxygen standalone version). This is a limitation of the platform and we cannot remove it. But there is an available alternative: Select the table row in the Outline, cut it, move t...

Hi Alex, The stylesheet I tested with was like this: <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="2.0"> <xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:result-document method="xhtml" href="test.html" omit-xml-declaration="yes" in...

Hi Malcolm, Thanks for the samples. I found the problem, there are many places in your DITA Project in which the references to topics use the Windows-syntax path separator like: <topicref href="topics\LogsAlarmsIntro.dita"... The DITA 1.2 specification: http://docs.oasis-open.org/dita/v1.2...

Hi Alex, I think that your first approach was the correct one. But in the stylesheet you should have set the namespace on the parent <html> element like: <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">..... You can also add this additional attribute on the <xsl:stylesheet>: xpath-default-names...

Hi Brian, Is there in the DITA OT console output an error message like "Not licensed" present? We fixed an issue similar to what you are reporting in the current development stream and the fix will be available in Oxygen 14 (in 2 months or so). If you want you can contact us using the supp...

Hi, So you are referring to the othermeta DITA element: http://docs.oasis-open.org/dita/v1.2/os/spec/langref/othermeta.html#othermeta Basically you have a couple of elegant ways and a hack (the hack being easier to implement). 1) Oxygen looks in the associated DTDs for such possible attribute values...

Hi, That's strange. So you are saying that this file: D:/My Documents/WIP/dita_projects/ePublisher/overview/intro.dita exists on disk but Oxygen reports it as non existing. We have not received any previous feedback about such an issue. Could you make up a small DITA Map Project and send us some sam...

* Dropdown lists for users (e.g. an $ask prompt with controlled choices) We already have an improvement request for this, I added your vote and we'll update the forum thread when it gets implemented. * A code template that supports multiple $ask requests Yes, this should be possible. Regards, Radu

Hi, Following your suggestion, when I used the dropdown menu rather than typing the code myself, the $ask worked. But this is also strange, as the actual text (once I customized the message and input type) is the exact same as what I typed myself. The samples which you posted in the first post conta...

Hi, So from what I understand you tried to use the $ask editor variables in two contexts: 1) In the new file templates used to create new documents. 2) In new code templates used to insert small snippets of XML code. (1) was not yet implemented but I added an improvement request and we'll update thi...

Hi,

You are right.
I consider this a bug in Oxygen which right now treats coderef more like an xref instead of treating it as a reference to a non-DITA resource.
We will probably fix this in the upcoming Oxygen 14, in a couple of months.

Regards,
Radu

Hi Bob, I also discussed this with Jarno Elovirta and added an improvement request for this on the DITA OT features list: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=725077&aid=3514841&group_id=132728 Jarno's approach if you just want to change the file name (and not the path where...

Hi Bob, Related to this remark: When you make the changes for oXygen 14.0 for running multiple transforms be sure that the file that opens is the same as the file transformed using the outputFile parameter. Indeed when the transformation finishes Oxygen somehow needs to open the PDF file which was g...

Hi,

How exactly are the text files referenced in the DITA topics?
Could you give me a sample XML code for it?

Regards,
Radu

Hi Bob, What you could try to do would be to define a different output directory for each of your transformation scenarios in order to avoid overwriting the PDF. or: I looked through the DITA OT ANT build files and there seems to be an undocumented ANT parameter called outputFile . If you edit a tra...

Hi Patrick, Sorry for coming back on this older post. About this remark: Secondly there are many tif and eps images in some xml files. It is not necessary to display them but the user should not get an error message. TIFF images can be viewed in the Author page by installing an additional plugin in ...

Hi,

No, sorry, generation of XML samples only works against XML Schemas and not against WSDL which has embedded XML Schemas.

Regards,
Radu

Hi, Oxygen can validate XML files against XML Schemas but not against XML Schemas which are embedded in WSDL files. Am I to understand that this is the usecase for your other post, trying to extract the XML Schema from the WSDL file? If you are the one designing the WSDL you could keep the XML Schem...

Hi,

We do not have such tool in Oxygen.

Usually people want the opposite, generating WSDL from XML Schema and there seem to be tools available for this.

But you could probably do it manually by copy-pasting the XML Schema from the WSDL file to a new XML Schema file.

Regards,
Radu

Hi Dave, The DITA Maps Manager is a simplified view of the map and indeed it does not offer a way to set the topic meta to topic references. But you can open the DITA Map in the main editing area by double clicking the root of the DITA Map tree. Then you can switch to the Text page and perform your ...
