Hi,

I'm trying to restrict deletion if Document Validation Fails. I had checked Custom in schema Aware Editing and chosen Reject action when result is invalid. Still, when I'm deleting element which results in validation failure, it is getting deleted.
No error/warning pop up is coming.

Can anyone please suggest how to restrict delete element operation and show error pop up if validation fails.

Thanks,
Prateeksha

Hi Prateeksha,

Can you give me a precise example of such a situation? Are you using the DITA XML vocabulary or some other XML vocabulary?
What element are you deleting? How are you deleting it? Maybe you can give me some steps to reproduce the problem on my side.

Radu

Hi Radu,

I'm using DTD schema and have created a new framework in xml editor. The use case is to restrict the deletion of mandatory elements as per schema.

For example, in DTD schema if a root element structure is defined as <!ELEMENT ROOT ( Subject , RevTrans? , Summary? Appendix*)>, then this subject element should not get deleted as it is required element. If I try to delete then I should get pop up message "Invalid Deletion, this element cannot be deleted!"

Currently, even after selecting schema aware editing option for deletion the elements are getting deleted and just getting red underline showing following message in validation panel..
