Oxygen XML Forum

I'm brand new to Oxygen XML Author (just installed it last week), and I’m running into a weird issue with XSLT transformations. I’ve set up a simple XSLT stylesheet and XML file, and the transformation works fine — but I can’t figure out where the output file is being saved.
I expected it to save in the same directory as my XML file, but it doesn't show up there. I've checked the transformation scenario settings, but maybe I'm missing something obvious.
Can someone guide me on how to control or verify where the output HTML gets saved? I’m on Windows 11, using Oxygen XML Author 26.1.
Thanks in advance!

Hi,

It would probably be preferable to not leave the output location to chance. If you specify just a file name without a parent directory, It's usually the working directory, but the working directory changes a lot.
XML Transformation with XSLT - Output Tab (XSLT Transformations)
In the Output tab of the transformation scenario, in the Save As field, use an "editor variable" that indicates the parent folder of the XML file, ${cfd}.
e.g. Regards,
