We are writing a plugin based addon for oXygen that uses custom form controls to provide a set of alternatives for specified element, text, and attribute nodes. Here, a form control button is associated with each element or text node that has alternative versions, where as attribute change form control buttons are associated with their containing element.
The initial testing of this form control approach is producing reasonable results, however when we associate a button with a DITA simpletable element no form control appears. I have looked to see if there is any documentation on the interaction between table elements and form controls, but found nothing that discusses this. Does anybody else have experience with associating custom form controls with table elements? Any insights welcome.
Best regards,
Anthony.
PS: Note that due to a form-control/StyleFilter interaction issue with oXygen Editor 15.1 and 15.2, which will be fixed in the next release, we are currently developing our plugin using oXygen 15.0.
