Using the Author SDK
by Nathan 17 Jan '14

17 Jan '14

Hi, I am looking at the Author API to develop some custom actions for our Oxygen Author implementation. However, going through the javadoc of the API doesn't strike me as being as the most productive way to know about the possibilities of the Author API. Is there any plan (if something already exists, I would love to be directed to it) to develop something like this - " https://code.google.com/p/guava-libraries/wiki/GuavaExplained" for the Author API? Thanks, Nathan

Hi Is there a way to get the value of following oXygen preferences through an API: * Checked opened files for file system changes * Auto update unmodified editors on file system changes And a way on subscribing to changes made on those settings?

Question about CustomComponentsValidator
by Jan Bevers 15 Jan '14

15 Jan '14

Hi all In my integration with oXygen 14 I use a custom Components Validator to hide some menu items from the user. I noticed that in oXygen 15.1 these buttons are not getting hidden anymore. I checked my code and the constructor of my class was not getting called anymore when using oXygen 15.1 My plugin.xml contains following entry (works for 14.2, not for 15.1): <extension type="componentsValidator" class="com.sdl.trisoft.oxygen.CustomComponentsValidatorPluginExtension"/> Was there a change regarding the ComponentsValidator in oXygen 15.1?

Issue with custom protocol handler and href with dots
by Jan Bevers 10 Jan '14

10 Jan '14

Hi I noticed that when a reference has dots in it oXygen never asks my Custom Protocol Handler to resolve it. I have an image tag that looks as followed: <image href="GUID.7A23068F.1C34.46A2.849F.91FF00B9D586"/> When I put a breakpoint on the openConnection(URL url) method I don't see any request coming in to resolve this reference. If I put ".jpg" at the end of this reference for example I can see a request coming in.

Enhancement request for AttributeEditingContextDescription
by Jan Bevers 07 Jan '14

07 Jan '14

Hi Since oXygen 15 it's possible to get the context for the current edited element / attribute from your own custom InputURLChooserCustomizer implementation. In some of our cases it is important to pass the current value of the edited attribute to our own dialogs. If I check the API of the AttributeEditingContextDescription you can only get the element and attribute name. I can stick with the functionality that there is now but it would definitely improve the usability of our integration if the value was also available. Is it possible to add the possibility to get the attribute value to the oXygen backlog? So we can take advantage from this in the next releases.

Problems running applet with latest Safari updates on Mac OS X
by Oxygen XML Editor Support 24 Oct '13

24 Oct '13

Hi everybody, Using the latest Safari updates (Safari 7 on OSX Mavericks for example) the Author Web Component bundled as a Java Applet fails to start because it no longer has permissions to write files to the user home folder. This happens despite the fact that the applet is signed and requests all permissions. The applet still runs fine with Firefox on Mac. This is caused by the fact that Safari added per-site controls for each applet. Users should be encouraged to go to the 'Safari->Preferences->Security page', click on the 'Manage Website Settings' button then select Java and for the corresponding site entry choose the 'Run in Unsafe mode' option. More details can be found here: http://www.intego.com/mac-security-blog/apple-safari-now-offers-per-site-ja… A workaround to avoid users having to change settings would be that in the Java code of the "ro.sync.ecss.samples.AuthorComponentSampleApplet" class before the startAppletInit() method is invoked to add the code: > if(new File(System.getProperty("user.home")).listFiles() == null) { > //Problems with Safari 7 on MAC, applet by default runs in safe mode and cannot create files in user home. > JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(AuthorComponentSampleApplet.this, > "Applet does not have permissions to access the user home folder to store its resources cache.\n" + > "If you want to remove this warning and you are running the Applet using Safari on MAC OS X \n" + > "please go to the 'Safari->Preferences->Security page', click on the 'Manage Website Settings' \n" + > "button then select Java and for the corresponding applet site entry choose the 'Run in Unsafe mode' option.", > "Cannot write applet resources to user home", JOptionPane.WARNING_MESSAGE); > //EXM-28624 If we have trouble accessing the user home we'll use the temporary files directory instead. > System.setProperty("user.home", System.getProperty("java.io.tmpdir")); > } which would instruct the applet to save its settings and resources to the temporary files folder each time it gets started, increasing the load time. The applet will still not have rights to access any file outside of that folder. Also if the user has a fixed license key, the applet will always show him the license registration dialog. -- Regards, Radu Radu Coravu <oXygen/> XML Editor, Schema Editor and XSLT Editor/Debugger http://www.oxygenxml.com

Dynamic content resolving in oXygen
by Pascal Beutels 19 Aug '13

19 Aug '13

Hi, For the moment (as far as we know) oXygen only supports dynamic resolving of link text on topic level elements. But e.g: <title> or @title on <table>, <fig>,... are not resolved. <alt> or @alt on <image>,... are not resolved. Are there any plans to support this in the future?
