Subject: [oXygen-user] [ANN] Version 6.0.0 of the Oxygen Batch Documents
 Converter add-on is now available!
Message-ID: <dcfc0618-70f6-4cc9-94d9-38b50661a05c@oxygenxml.com>

Hello everyone,

We are happy to announce that *version 6.0.0* of the *Oxygen Batch 
Documents Converter add-on* is now available!

With this update, users can now seamlessly convert XSD to JSON Schema 
(version 2020-12).

Additionally, we have implemented enhancements related to the processing 
of custom-styled lists for Word to HTML/DITA conversions. Furthermore, 
to optimize performance and reliability, we have updated the Apache POI 
library, utilized for conversions from Word (only ".doc" format) and 
Excel, to version 5.2.5.

For more information on the Oxygen Batch Documents Converter add-on 
(including the installation steps), you can check the page below:
https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/ug-editor/topics/batch-converter-addon.html

We sincerely hope you will find this add-on helpful, and as usual, we 
appreciate your feedback!


Best regards,
Alin

Hi All,

A colleague of mine would like to use cross references within reusable content. For example, he created a reusable content topic with <p> elements and <table> elements. In the <p> elements, he created an <xref> to the <table> element, but in the PDF, this does not result in a correct link. Is there a way to incorporate <xref> elements in reusable content? I would think it?s possible with conkeyrefs, but I can?t figure out how to implement this. Any suggestion would be appreciated.

We work with Oxygen embedded in Ixiasoft Eclipse  / Madcap IXIA CCMS Web.

Thank you.

Kind regards,

Judith

PS. Do  you offer DITA or Oxygen courses for technical authors who would like to learn a bit more about how these kind of things work?

Hello Judith,

An internal link inside a reused component should look like this:

> <div id="reusable">
> ??????????? <table id="myTable">
> ??????????????? <tgroup cols="1">
> ??????????????????? <tbody>
> ??????????????????????? <row>
> ??????????????????????????? <entry></entry>
> ??????????????????????? </row>
> ??????????????????? </tbody>
> ??????????????? </tgroup>
> ??????????? </table>
> ??????????? <p>
> ??????????????? Paragraph <xref href="#./myTable"/>
> ??????????? </p>
> ??????? </div>
So:

> <xref href="#./myTable"/>
That "#." part is called a self link, there are some examples of it here:

https://www.oxygenxml.com/dita/1.3/specs/langRef/base/xref.html

So the "<xref href="#./myTable"/>" should properly resolve in the 
HTML/PDF no matter where the entire reusable component will be used.

But this depends also on the publishing offered by Ixiasoft which we do 
not control.

About how you can insert "<xref href="#./myTable"/>" constructs, 
Ixiasoft in general allows only inserting keyref links but in this case 
such a relative href link would need to be inserted in order for the 
link to work. If Ixiasoft's Oxygen integration does not offer you the 
way to insert such a link in the Author page, you can try to insert it 
in the Text editing mode and ask Ixiasoft to take such an use case into 
account for a future version.

About this remark:

> Do? you offer DITA or Oxygen courses for technical authors who would 
> like to learn a bit more about how these kind of things work? 
We do not offer training/courses. Even if we would, it would not help 
you much because you are using Oxygen with Ixiasoft which controls what 
actions and functionality the editor offers, the workflows are 
controlled by the CMS.

The DITA 1.3 specification is quite an useful set of resources about 
what the DITA standard can and cannot do.

We also have a set of videos for learning DITA with Oxygen (but they are 
with Oxygen desktop which has more functionality than the Oxygen 
products which are embedded and customized by Ixiasoft):

https://blog.oxygenxml.com/topics/learnDita.html

Hope this helps!

Radu

Hi Radu,

Thanks for your quick and extensive reply. Unfortunately, the trick doesn?t work in our Eclipse/CMS web environment ?. It did work in my Oxygen stand alone version, so I did something right?

about this.

Hi Radu,

Judith again with a different question. We recently updated our MadCap IXIA CCMS web to version 6.8. With the update, we lost the special characters plugin for Oxygen XML Web Author. I can?t find it on our Admin page, nor on your Plugin page. Do you know where I can find it?

Thanks.

Kind regards,

Judith

Subject: [oXygen-user] QuickFix and DITA default attributes
Message-ID: <e5fa9714-4d3c-4dda-9025-3aa8eaad1fba@kosek.cz>

Hi,

I'm creating few small "refactoring actions" using Schematron and 
QuickFix for DITA in oXygen. It works except that default attributes are 
being copied when some element is copied using QuickFix. For example the 
following QuickFix

<sch:pattern>
     <sch:rule context="p">
       <sch:report test="image and 
following-sibling::*[1]/self::fig[not(image)]"
                   sqf:fix="wrap-image">Image is misplaced and not 
enclosed by a figure.</sch:report>

       <sqf:fix id="wrap-image">
         <sqf:description>
           <sqf:title>Move image into adjacent figure.</sqf:title>
         </sqf:description>
         <sch:let name="image" value="image"/>
         <sqf:delete/>
         <sqf:add match="following-sibling::*[1]" position="last-child" 
select="$image"/>
       </sqf:fix>

     </sch:rule>
   </sch:pattern>

Will move image

<image href="media/image29.png"/>

as

<image class="- topic/image " href="media/image29.png" 
placement="inline" 
xmlns:ditaarch="http://dita.oasis-open.org/architecture/2005/"/>

I understand that this is perhaps because QuickFix is internally 
implemented as XSLT transformation so default attributes are loaded from 
DTD during the parsing. I can live with added @class and @placement, but 
xmlns:ditaarch namespace declaration instantly triggers validation error 
in oXygen which is inconvenient? Is this something you can fix in next 
releases?

For now I've workaround that is using XSLT for performing QuickFix 
action and uses <xsl:copy copy-namespaces="no"> and I intentionally do 
not copy @class attribute. But QuickFix is much more concise.

Thanks and have a nice day,

					Jirka

Hello Jirka,

As usually default attributes appear on elements in the Schematron 
schema and there is no way to know if they have been set in the schema 
or directly on the XML element.

You can use a template to filter out the class attribute, something 
similar to this older forum thread:

Subject: [oXygen-user] [ANN] Version 26.1 of the Oxygen XML Suite of
 Products is Now Available!
Message-ID: <da8481e1-ae7a-409f-b75c-ca32cd0aa6bd@sync.ro>

Hello everyone,

We are incredibly proud to announce the immediate availability of 
*version 26.1* of our industry-leading XML suite of products: *Oxygen 
XML Editor*, *Author*, *Developer*, *Web Author*, *Publishing Engine*, 
*WebHelp*, *PDF Chemistry*, *Scripting*, and *JSON Editor*.

The *Enterprise edition* of Oxygen XML Editor/Author/Developer becomes 
*AI-ready*, offering access without the need for an additional 
subscription to the *Oxygen AI Positron Assistant Enterprise* add-on 
which allows direct connection to OpenAI accounts or to the Microsoft 
Azure OpenAI Service.

Version 26.1 introduces new functionality tailored for *DITA users*, 
*XSLT/XQuery developers*, and *JSON/YAML developers*, enhancing 
productivity and versatility across various workflows.

The Oxygen Publishing Engine include float support and new CSS 
properties, providing users with greater control over their PDF output 
customization.

Oxygen Web Author brings support for DITA-OT project files to manage the 
editing context and improved handling of DITAVAL filters.

Additionally, version 26.1 introduces the JSON Schema Validator add-on, 
facilitating seamless validation of JSON documents against JSON schema. 
Moreover, the Batch Documents Converter add-on now includes XSD to JSON 
Schema conversions, expanding its utility.

======================================================================

*What's New in Oxygen XML Editor 26.1*

Oxygen XML Editor is an incremental release of the industry-leading 
bundle of tools for content authors, developers, collaborators, and 
publishers.

Starting with this version, *DITA authors* can now convert sections to 
new topic files while preserving the DITA topic type, saving time and 
effort while ensuring that content remains properly structured. When 
editing DITA topics, several actions listed as proposals are accessible 
from the content completion window to help make it easier to insert 
content references and key references. A new option is also available to 
control whether or not non-DITA resources are automatically converted to 
DITA when inserting topic references in the DITA Maps Manager, yet 
another time saving improvement.

*DITA publishers* that use the Zendesk Help Center transformation 
scenario will be happy to know that it now automatically creates and 
publishes a table of contents and also supports publishing to a 
subsection. For CSS-based PDF transformations, the new support for 
prepress print layout ensures that your PDFs are print-ready. The PDF 
transformation now also automatically fixes some incorrect values for 
the units of measurement detected in the width/height of images. When 
running DITA transformations, the real-time progress is constantly 
updated in the status bar to keep users informed of the current 
publishing step being processed.

*Author mode* improvements include the content completion's Split action 
now automatically adding required first child elements inside the newly 
created element, removing extra steps from the editing process. Also, 
the spell checker now detects spelling errors for text inside two 
consecutive inline elements without a space in between them, helping to 
keep content error-free by preventing words from being incorrectly 
merged together.

Some quality of life improvements were also added when using *Markdown*. 
The Smart Paste mechanism converts Markdown content that is pasted 
within XML documents in Author mode into the target vocabulary. Syntax 
highlights are now displayed for other languages embedded within 
Markdown, making it easy to identify and edit code snippets in different 
languages. The DITA preview pane now presents colors and filters for 
profiling attributes, allowing users to visualize their filtered content 
with ease.

*JSON users* now have the power to transform JSON documents using *XSLT 
transformation scenarios*, unlocking a myriad of new possibilities. The 
content completion for JSON offers proposals even when no schema is 
associated and the JSON Outline view can help increase productivity as 
it now displays the number of child elements in each array's label and 
also supports drag and drop. Furthermore, basic text editing support was 
added for*JSON5* documents, and a new *JSON Schema Validator add-on* is 
available to provide support for validating JSON documents against JSON 
schema version 2020-12.

The *AI Positron Assistant* continues to get impressive updates. A 
separate Enterprise version of the Oxygen AI Positron Assistant add-on 
is now available for users who want to connect directly to OpenAI 
accounts or Microsoft Azure OpenAI Service. New document templates are 
available to help easily create AI Positron custom actions, unlocking 
personalized AI solutions. A new AI action is also available to 
translate content into any desired language. The AI Positron Refactoring 
action makes it easier than ever to refactor and optimize AI projects 
and it now works when applied on remote resources. In addition, the chat 
pane now uses XML syntax highlighting for XML code to make it easier to 
visualize and understand the AI response.

Other features and improvements were added as well. One such feature is 
the ability to execute Quick fix proposals in bulk, which allows users 
to resolve multiple issues at once. The latest engines are available for 
the Saxon XSLT and XQuery Transformer add-on and XProc 3.0 schemas were 
added to offer support for content completion and validation for XProc 
3.0 files. Unique values are now automatically generated for ID-type 
attributes that are inserted using the Content Completion Assistant, 
saving time by eliminating the need to manually add them. Also, schema 
files and new file templates were added to support editing DocBook 5.2 
documents and SVG 1.2 Tiny documents.

This release also implements a variety of performance improvements, 
security enhancements, API and component updates, and various bug fixes.

For more information, see: 
https://www.oxygenxml.com/xml_editor/whats_new.html

======================================================================

*What's New in Oxygen JSON Editor 26.1*

The JSON support added in Oxygen XML Editor/Developer is also available 
in the Oxygen JSON Editor version 26.1. JSON users now have the power to 
transform JSON documents utilizing *XSLT transformation scenarios*, 
access to content completion for JSON even when no schema is associated, 
JSON Outline view that displays the number of child elements in each 
array label and also supports drag and drop, basic text editing for 
*JSON5* documents, and the new *JSON Schema Validator add-on* provides 
support for validating JSON documents against JSON schema version 2020-12.

Furthermore, this release also sees the implementation of various 
performance improvements, security enhancements, API and component 
updates, and bug fixes.

For more information, see: 
https://www.oxygenxml.com/json_editor/whats_new.html

======================================================================

*What's New in Oxygen XML Scripting 26.1*

The *DITA Validate and Check for Completeness* script received important 
performance enhancements, significantly reducing the time it takes for 
the script to finish when using DITAVAL filters.

For more information, see: 
https://www.oxygenxml.com/xml_scripting/whats_new.html

======================================================================

*What's New in Oxygen XML Web Author 26.1*

This release has some interesting new features for DITA users, 
introducing *support for DITA-OT project files* and providing better 
handling of DITAVAL filters. The DITA Map pane allows users to specify a 
DITA-OT project file and choose between the contexts defined within it. 
Users may also easily switch profiling conditions, and there is the 
option to hide or present as grayed out content that is excluded by the 
current filter in the document, DITA Maps pane, and in the Outline pane.

The AI Positron Assistant's feature for previewing changes was improved 
to allow choosing which of the AI's proposed changes will be 
incorporated into users' documents. When dragging a node within the 
Outline pane, the outline tree automatically scrolls along with the 
movement to make it easier to precisely drop the node where needed. The 
Unicode support was improved to better support surrogate characters 
(e.g. emoji characters) and the text mode is available as read-only mode 
for concurrent editing sessions. When Markdown content is pasted within 
DITA, DocBook, TEI, or XHTML documents, it is automatically converted to 
the target vocabulary by the smart paste functionality.

If users develop Web Author customizations, the new CSS Inspector lets 
them see the styles of the selected element and the process of uploading 
a framework now includes validation to keep customized frameworks 
error-free. Server logs are available from the Administration Page to 
help troubleshoot issues with the Web Author server and some new URL 
parameters are also available to impose a DITAVAL filter or a DITA-OT 
project context for filtering the document.

Version 26.1 also brings a variety of performance improvements, security 
enhancements, API and component updates, and bug fixes.

Subject: [oXygen-user] Add custom catalog to OT build
Message-ID: <4415d76a-366f-4944-b437-e908760a21dc@leximation.com>

I've got a custom framework that includes an OT installation that 
provides our custom doctype files and custom plugins. Editing topics 
that use this custom doctype is handled without problems, and using 
transformation scenarios that are supported by the embedded OT also 
works fine. But, I'd like to use an OT target that lives in the default 
Oxygen OT installation. My Oxygen DITA settings still point to the 
"built-in" OT, so when I set up a transformation scenario for the Oxygen 
OT target, it starts to work, but fails when it can't find the custom DTD.

When I add a pointer from [OXYGEN]/org.dita.base/catalog-dita.xml that 
references my custom catalog, the build completes fine. BUT .. I don't 
want to modify the default Oxygen installation files.

Some thoughts ..

- I don't think there's a param that I can add to the transformation 
scenario to reference my custom catalog .. is there?

- I've tried adding my catalog in Settings > XML > XML Catalog .. but 
that didn't seem to have any affect.

Is there any way to add a custom catalog without editing the default 
Oxygen files?

Currently using Oxygen 25.1.

Thanks!

...scott

Hi Scott,

As you seem to have a custom DITA OT installation inside your custom 
framework, why don't you also use it as a default engine for publishing 
in the Oxygen Preferences->DITA page?

Other than that, the DITA OT needs to have a plugin containing extra 
catalogs (or as a hack you need to manually make changes to the 
"catalog-dita.xml" inside the DITA OT). There is no possibility to 
enforce an extra set of XML catalogs from the exterior when? starting 
the DITA OT. At some point I wished there was such a way:

https://github.com/dita-ot/dita-ot/issues/1515

Also Jarno Elovirta experimented at some point with a way to install 
plugins in the DITA OT without the need to change any files in the DITA 
OT folder itself, this pull request was abandoned though:

https://github.com/dita-ot/dita-ot/pull/3152

Radu

Thanks, Radu.

Yes, I had seen those github discussions, and had hoped that maybe 
something had been implemented. Seems like a reasonable feature.

We're trying to use the com.oxygenxml.pdf.css plugin, which I assume 
requires special licensing if used outside of the default install .. ? 
Will look into the options.

Regards,
...scott
