[oXygen-user] Oxygen 10.1 - Frameworks DITA catalog file has higher priority than project specific catalog files

Hello,

For a document that matches a document type that is available in 
Preferences -> Document Type Association the XML catalogs are parsed and 
used in the order specified on the tab Catalogs of the dialog for 
editing a document type. It does not matter if the document types are 
stored at project level or at global level. If a reference is not 
resolved with one of the catalogs specified for the document type the 
catalog resolver also looks in the global catalogs available in 
Preferences -> XML -> XML Catalog. Is your catalog the first in the list 
displayed on the Catalogs tab of the dialog for editing a document type?


Regards,
Sorin
