Outline view does not show titles for topics with child elements

Hello,
we have recently upgraded from version 24.1 to 26.1 and are now encountering an issue with the Outline view in Author mode. This problem does not occur in Text mode.
When I filter for "topic" elements in the Outline view, the titles of topics that have child elements are no longer displayed. Only the titles of topic elements without child elements are visible.
Outline view in Author mode:

Outline view in Text mode:

Is this a bug, or is there a setting we need to configure?
Thank you!

Hi Vincent,
This would look like a bug.
To the right of the Outline "Filter" field there should be a "Settings" button, could you click that button and send me a screenshot with how those settings are configured on your side.
Could you also paste in a codeblock a small sample DITA XML topic with which to reproduce the problem? I only need the topic and title elements I think, so no other content should be required.
Regards,
Radu

Hi Radu,
this are the settings:

Let me know if you need help to match the settings to the english translation.
This is a simplified topic sample:
Code: Select all
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE topic PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DITA Topic//EN" "../dita/technicalContent/dtd/topic.dtd" []>
<topic id="1">
<title>title_1</title>
<topic id="2">
<title>title_2</title>
<topic id="3">
<title>title_3</title>
</topic>
<topic id="4">
<title>title_4</title>
<topic id="5">
<title>title_5</title>
</topic>
</topic>
</topic>
</topic>
This would show as:

Thank you for your help!

Hi,
Great, thanks for the samples!
I started an internal issue, pasting the issue ID below for future reference:
EXM-55042 Outline view no longer shows title for the topic element
We are getting very close to release Oxygen 27 and we are in a code freeze stage. I will try to fix this issue and add it to an Oxygen 27 minor bug fix release (possibly in about a month). I will update this forum thread when a fix becomes available.
Regards,
Radu
