Oxygen XML Forum

hi~ We like how Oxygen XML Editor renders topics referenced by a key in the DITA Maps Manager. The user interface renders something like:

keydef -> filename

We do not always use keys for reused topics. Is there a way to insert processing instructions in the topics (or something like that) to tell Oxygen XML Editor to render files in DITA Maps Manager in a certain way?

thanks~ nicholas

Hi Nicholas,

We have some Java-based API which would allow you to control the icons and names which appear in the DITA Maps Manager view so if you want this approach I could try to give you more details...

Hi Radu,
Yes, please. That would be great. Thanks,

Nicholas

Hi Nicholas,

Our Java SDK can be downloaded from here:

We have a topic describing how an XML Node Renderer customizer should be used:

https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/versions/ ... mizer.html

Basically in the Document Type Associations preferences page if you extend or edit the "DITA Map" document type association, it has a Classpath tab where you can add your additional JAR library and an Extensions tab where you can configure that individual extension.
Your implementation should probably extend the ro.sync.ecss.extensions.dita.DITANodeRendererCustomizer.DITANodeRendererCustomizer() base class which already has some DITA-related customizations and delegate to the base implementation for most references.

Regards,
Radu
