<wintitle> style not working on CHM output

Hi guys

In my DITAfiles, I used <wintitle> tag identify dialog windows. This <wintitle> works on Webhelp ouput; however, it does not seem to work on CHM ouput. Are there any solutions to configure the <wintitle> style on CHM output.

Thank you

Regards,

Hi,

When publishing using the DITA OT to an XHTML-type output (like CHM) the <wintitle> content is transformed in the XHTML output as something like:

Code: Select all


<span class="keyword wintitle">THE WIN TITLE</span>
This <span> is not styled in any particular way in the CSS which is used by default:

OXYGEN_INSTALL_DIR/frameworks/dita/DITA-OT/resource/commonltr.css

What you could do would be to create a new CSS file with some content like:

Code: Select all

span.wintitle{
font-style:italic;
}
then edit the transformation scenario and in the Parameters list set the parameter args.css to point to your CSS and the parameter args.copy.css to yes.

Regards,
Radu
