Oxygen XML editor feature comparison: Standalone, Web, Eclipse
Posted: Fri Sep 11, 2020 12:13 pm
I'm familiar with, and like, the "standalone" Oxygen XML Author Windows desktop application.
I'm aware of, but I have not used, the Oxygen XML Author Eclipse Plugin and Oxygen XML Web Author.
I have studied the Oxygen XML Feature Matrix.
The matrix row for "Find and replace in all project files" indicates that the Eclipse plugin and Web editions do not support that feature.
I'm curious about that.
I can't find a corresponding row for "Find and replace in the current ditamap" (specifically, ditamap, as opposed to project file).
In the Eclipse plugin and Web editions, can I perform a "find and replace" operation across all topics in a ditamap? I think the answer is "No", but I thought I'd check. Could you please confirm that?
I recently read a statement somewhere (sorry, I don't want to say where, or by whom) that implied that, by the end of 2021, Oxygen XML Web Author will have all of the features of Oxygen XML Author (the Windows application). That is, an updated feature comparison matrix would indicate parity between the two. I would be amazed if that were true. Do you (the Oxygen developers) have any comment about that?
