Learning Xml structure for XSLT authoring
by Karl Stubsjoen 10 Feb '12

10 Feb '12

I realize that if I setup a transformation scenario between the XSLT and the Xml then when authoring the XSLT I get intellisense on the Xml source but only if I create a transformation scenario where the XSLT is used as the document to build a scenario from. So what if I create a transformation scenario and I use my source Xml as the starting point (typical for me)? I don't get the intellisense when in the stylesheet. Besides the above, is there another way for the Xslt to learn the Xml source? Thanks, Karl.. -- Karl Stubsjoen MeetScoresOnline.com (602) 845-0006

XPath expressions syntactically highlighted in XSLT
by Florent Georges 07 Feb '12

07 Feb '12

Hi, In 13.2, I discovered the new feature of highlighting the XPath expressions in the select attributes in XSLT. While this is a good idea I think, the result is not really clear in my humble opinion. It is hard to visually differentiate the value of the attributes (the XPath expressions) and the XSLT instructions themselves, as they use nearly the same colors. Something that could (probably) help would be to have the ability to add some grey-shading under the select attributes. Like a (very) light background color. So it would be possible to visually differentiate directly what's an XPath expression and what's the XSLT structure. Just some thought...

Improving the scenario dialog (organize 'em all)
by Florent Georges 07 Feb '12

07 Feb '12

Hi, I always found it quite difficult to organize my scenarios. After giving it some thoughts, I think 2 things could help here (especially the first one)... 1/ separating (for instance in 2 tabs, might be an optional feature) the global scenarios and the project scenarios 2/ allowing the user to categorize the scenarios, either in a tree hierarchy, or by allowing him/her to create new "scenario types" to belong in the dropdown list Just some thoughts...

Fill in attribute values automatically?
by Yves Barbion 06 Feb '12

06 Feb '12

Hi group When I insert an image into my DITA topic, I need to specify a number of attributes such as platform, otherprops etc. I have to do this for each and every image over and over again and the attribute values are always the same for all images. So, I was wondering: is there a way to have these attributes values filled in automatically? Thanks -- Yves Barbion www.scripto.nu

Validation of @class on non-DITA elements
by Eliot Kimber 01 Feb '12

01 Feb '12

It looks like the DITA Schematrons are validating @class on non-DITA elements (that is, elements within topic/foreign), e.g. @class on MathML elements. The Schematrons should ignore the non-DITA content of <foreign> elements.
