Process current context using custom swing component
by Nathan 28 Feb '14

28 Feb '14

Hi, I would like to create a Swing component which receives the current element, processes it through user interactions and returns a value which needs to be inserted back. I would like to trigger this using the Author API when a particular attribute value for the element is entered. How would I go about doing this? If there is a sample available of something similar, I would love to take a look. Thanks! Nathan

Custom forms sample in Author development guide
by Nathan 28 Feb '14

28 Feb '14

Hi, I am trying to implement a custom form control and I see that the samples of the SDF contains the java source of the SimpleURLChooserEditor. However, I don't see anything in the SDF css calling it like it mentions in the dev guide - " http://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/ug-editor/topics/implementing-custom-form-cont… ". I saw the blog post at "http://blog.oxygenxml.com/" but that did not clarify things for me. It would be great if I could get step-by-step instructions on how to do this. Thanks, Nathan

Oxygen CSS question
by Nathan 17 Feb '14

17 Feb '14

Hi, I have a case where I have to apply differential styles to two sets of images based on a substring in the href attribute. To give the use case: - Use case 1 - Apply a certain style to a image element with href containing the images folder - I can easily do this as image[href*="images/"]{ /* Apply style here */ } - Use case 2 - Apply a different style to anything not fulfilling the above criteria - how would I do a "not equal to" to test for hrefs not containing the "images" sub string? Is this possible using Oxygen CSS? Sorry if this might be an obvious question to someone used to CSS, I am a total CSS newbie. Thanks a bunch! Nathan

Get extension setting for backiup files
by Jan Bevers 12 Feb '14

12 Feb '14

Hi Is it possible to get the extension for backup files when doing a find and replace? For example when the user does a "Find and replace in files" he can create backup files and even choose the extension. I see that the backup files are also using the CustomProtocolHandler to write to the file system. Is there a way to know which extension the user has set in that dialog programmatically?

Behavior of Edit Attributes in Oxygen 15.2
by Erwin Lefever 11 Feb '14

11 Feb '14

Hi, We noticed that the Edit Attributes screen in Oxygen 15.2 does not show the [cid:image001.png@01CF2711.725E3E60] "open icon" anymore for every attribute as it did in 14.1 (See screenshots). We see the "open icon" appearing next to the "conref" attribute in 15.2, but we would also like to have it available for e.g. the "data" attribute (on the "object" element) and some of our custom attributes (e.g. ishcondition) Is this something we can now support/implement programmatically?

Behavior of WSEditorChangeListener.editorActivated in 15.2
by Jan Bevers 10 Feb '14

10 Feb '14

Hi I noticed in my integration that since 15.2 I get unexpected calls on the WSEditorChangeListener.editorActivated method. In my plugin I create an WSEditorChangeListener for the map manager and the editor view on initialization. So each panel/view has its own listener. Since 15.2 I noticed that the editorActivated was called on both listeners. Didn't really matter if a document was opened in the map manager or editor view. In my case I was only expecting it to be called within the listener of the editor view. For example when you open a document like "paint.dita" in the editor view, I can see the editorActivated being called for both the map manager and the editor. Both have the url of that file as an editorLocation parameter. I can get round this issue by getting the WSEditor instance and check if it is null.

Problem with opening dita maps
by Jan Bevers 07 Feb '14

07 Feb '14

Hi I have a couple of questions related to opening DITA maps in combination with a custom protocol handler. In our system Dita maps are stored with an ".xml" extension on the file system. No difference with regular topics. Some stuff I had to do: * I had to change a setting in the preferences File Types => DITA maps file patterns = "*.ditamap, *.bookmap , .xml" * Next thing I did was adding following override in my CustomProtocolHandler @Override public String getContentType() { // Set ditamap mimetype for maps // This changes oXygen behavior so it shows the question to open in map manager or editor WorkItem workItem = AuthoringBridge.getWorkArea().getWorkItemByPath(url); if (workItem.getObjectType().equals(SelectableObjectTypes.Map)) { return "application/ditamap"; } return super.getContentType(); } Some questions/remarks I have: * When I did an "Open map in editor" from the map manager panel I got a popup asking to open in the map manager or editor. Would expect it to open it in the editor immediately. * Is it possible to set the "DITA maps file patterns" through code? Otherwise all users have to do this manually. Thanks in advance.
