[oXygen-user] Custom styling of xrefs in CSS?

Hi,

I need to customize display of DocBook xref elements pointing to
figures. Such xrefs shouldn't display title of referenced figure, but
instead figure number should be displayed (something like Figure 3.2).

I was reading documentation but my impression is that this can't be done
in pure CSS with oXygen extensions. Instead I have to implement my own
LinkTextResolver:

https://www.oxygenxml.com/InstData/Editor/SDK/javadoc/ro/sync/ecss/extensions/api/link/LinkTextResolver.html

Is that right assess or have I missed something? Also will
LinkTextResolver work in Web Author?

In this particular case it would be useful to have access to content
generated by :before on the link target. For example with function like
oxy_link-text-before() my problem could be easily solved as:

xref { content: oxy_link-text-before(); }

Many thanks in advance,

					Jirka
