Oxygen XML Forum

Hi, I'm not actually sure that this is feature request or a problem with my use of the options.xml file. I want to custom populate the recently used items in the "Insert special characters" utility grid.

I tried this entry in the options.xml file on the server at //localhost/oxygen-xml-web-author/options/options.xml:
<entry>
<String>recently.used.characters</String>
<String>áÁàÀãÃāĀäÄéÉèÈẽẼēĒëËŸ</String>
</entry>

Does this not work in oXygen XML Web Author: 21.0, build 2019021819/2019021817, or is there something I need to do differently.

Thanks much as always for your help,
Javi

Hello,

The option was added in version 21.1. You should upgrade to use it.

You can configure it in the Admin Page in the Plugins section, or directly in options.xml as

Thank you Cristian we have applied this to our production application and find that it is very nice to have.

Hello,

I have the same problem, and I have strange caracters:

<entry>
<String>PLUGIN_CUSTOM_OPTIONS.charp.recently.used.characters</String>
<String>áÁàÀãÃāĀäÄéÉèÈẽẼēĒëËŸ</String>
</entry>

I don't know if this is normal or I have to install a font source...

Thank you.

Hello,

Can you please provide more details regarding the strange characters:
- Do the characters get shown correctly in the "Insert special characters" grid?
- Did the characters change after setting the option?
- Are they shown correctly after inserting in the document?

It may also help if you could tell us the versions of the Web Author and the plugin.
What browser do you use?

Best Regards,
Mihaela
