New user: unicode editing
by Craig Ugoretz 23 Sep '06

Hello, I am new to oxygen and am very interested in its unicode functionality. Unfortunately, I have not been able to locate a dialog for entering, searching for, or replacing unicode characters like other unicode enabled editors I have reviewed. What do I need to do to access this functionality in oxygen? Sincerely, Craig

areaspec feature in docbook
by Achim Oehlenschlaeger 14 Sep '06

Hello, I'm using Oxygen 7.2 and want to use the areaspec feature to define linkable areas in a graphics object. I tried the example from http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/mediaobjectco.html but don't get the desired result. I did read and follow the readme file in: ...\Oxygen XML Editor 7.2\frameworks\docbook\xsl\extensions I tried the Docbook transformation scenario as delivered with oxygen first, than I also added the DocBook extension to the scenario, than I switched to Xalan (I also switched the extension) but the result is always the same as shown below. Thanks, Achim Input: ------ <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE mediaobjectco PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.4//EN" "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.1.2/docbookx.dtd"> <mediaobjectco> <imageobjectco> <areaspec units="calspair"> <areaset id="oneway" coords=""> <area id="oneway1" coords="300 400"/> <area id="oneway2" coords="325 340"/> </areaset> <area id="myhouse" coords="425 590"/> </areaspec> <imageobject> <imagedata fileref="http://maps.example.com/EARTH?USA?MA?01007"/> </imageobject> </imageobjectco> </mediaobjectco> Output: ------- <html> <head> <META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"><title></title> <meta content="DocBook XSL Stylesheets V1.70.1" name="generator"> </head><body bgcolor="white" text="black" link="#0000FF" vlink="#840084" alink="#0000FF"> <div class="mediaobjectco"> <img border="0" usemap="N10003" src="http://maps.example.com/EARTH?USA?MA?01007"> <map name="N10003"><area shape="rect" coords="NaN,NaN,NaN,NaN"> <area shape="rect" coords="NaN,NaN,NaN,NaN"> <area shape="rect" coords="NaN,NaN,NaN,NaN"> </map> </div> </body> </html>

\\machinename\username SAMBA shares
by Chris Chiasson 10 Sep '06

10 Sep '06

Hi, oXygen for Eclipse declines to transform any of my XML files on my SAMBA share. It works fine when I copy the entire workspace to my hard disk and then try it. I just recently moved my workspace to my SAMBA share so I could build with ant on Linux. The error came up when I was trying a manual transformation to diagnose an XEP problem... I am using the right click->transformation->configure transformation method. The error is: Configure Transformation Scenario Configure transformation skipped. Content type not handled for resource: Engineering_Optimization.xml -- http://chris.chiasson.name/

problem with xlink in METS files
by Christian Wittern 01 Sep '06

01 Sep '06

Hi there, I am having a strange problem with editing / validating METS instances. Using the schema from http://www.loc.gov/standards/mets/mets.xsd (which imports xlink.xsd at the same location), I am editing a file with the following root: <mets xmlns="http://www.loc.gov/METS/" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.loc.gov/METS/ file:mets.xsd" xmlns:gdm="http://sunsite.berkeley.edu/GDM/" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/TR/xlink"> </mets> i.e. I am defining a NS prefix xlink for the xlink namespace. Nevertheless, when I place attributes from this namespace on elements (e.g. on Flocat), oXygen claims they are not valid there and instead offers the very same attributes, but with namespace prefixes like ns1, ns2 etc. This seems to be wrong, but I am at a loss how to fix this. Is this a bug in oXygen or am I doing something wrong? Any help appreciated, Christian Wittern -- Christian Wittern, Kyoto
