How to match across multiple lines using regex?
by Eliot Kimber 17 Jan '14

17 Jan '14

I’m trying to a regular expression search and replace for things like this: doc: text text next line next line</a:documentation> What I can’t figure out is how to do this multi-line regular expression match. If use “dot matches all” then my match is not limited to just what’s shown but everything between the first doc: and the last </a:documentation>. If do e.g. “doc:(.)</a:documentation>” then it matches cases where it all happens to be on one line. Is this possible? What bit of regex fu am I missing?

Ant syntax highlighting?
by Tom Cleghorn 17 Jan '14

17 Jan '14

Hi, I'd very much like to tweak Oxygen's Ant syntax highlighting - specifically, I'd like to be able to highlight variables in attribute values, which are currently displayed as red text from start to finish. It seems like this ought to be relatively easy to specify (i.e. anything between "${" and "}" is styled differently), but is this possible with the framework functionality, or in any other way at all? Thanks!

Line breaks in DITA source
by KAATMAN Matthew 16 Jan '14

16 Jan '14

Hey Guys, How does Oxygen decide where to add line breaks in the source? I've got a strange situation where I'll have some content like: (Note the literal space between and <tm) Stenotrophomonas maltophilia <tm tmtype="tm"><tm tmtype="reg" translate="no">ATCC</tm> 17666</tm> Oxygen often formats it like: (Note the lack of a space after ) Stenotrophomonas maltophilia <tab><tab><tab><tab><tm tmtype="tm"><tm tmtype="reg" translate="no">ATCC</tm> 17666</tm> So far so good. Rendering this to PDF produces a space between the and <tm. However, when we send these files to our translation vendor (they're using Trados), the content comes back as: (Note lack of space) Stenotrophomonas maltophilia<tm tmtype="tm"><tm tmtype="reg" translate="no">ATCC</tm> 17666</tm> One solution (and maybe the best one!) would be for the translation vendor to preserve whitespace. However, I was curious if there was a way to set rules that define how Oxygen saves the file. If so, another thing I'd probably do is never break a tag across lines. I see this fairly often too. Which 99.99% of the time is no problem, but we've run into some issues due to complexity we've introduced. <uicontrol >Test</uicontrol> Thanks!

Preventing oXygen XML Author to start a new "instance"
by Yves Barbion 09 Jan '14

09 Jan '14

Hi group When I have oXygen XML Author open and double-click an xml file in Windows Explorer, a new "instance" of oXygen XML Author is started in which this file is opened. Isn't there a way to prevent this, so that the xml file is opened in the instance which is currently running? Thanks -- Yves Barbion www.scripto.nu

Configuring OT's FOP To Render MathML
by Eliot Kimber 09 Jan '14

09 Jan '14

Using Oxygen 15.1 with the 1.6.3 OT with FOP 1.1 manually installed into the pdf2 plugin, and given DITA docs with MathML and a plugin that outputs the MathML as markup within fo:instream-foreign-object elements, if I run the OT PDF transform from within Oxygen, then FOP renders the MathML nicely. If I run the same transform from the command line from within a startCmd.sh-created environment, e.g.: bash-3.2$ ant -lib "/Applications/oxygen/lib/xml-apis.jar" -lib "/Applications/oxygen/lib/xercesImpl.jar" -lib "/Applications/oxygen/frameworks/dita/DITA-OT" -lib "/Applications/oxygen/lib/commons-io-1.3.1.jar" -lib "/Applications/oxygen/lib/commons-logging-1.1.1.jar" -lib "/Applications/oxygen/lib/log4j.jar" -lib "/Applications/oxygen/frameworks/dita/DITA-OT/lib/dost-patches.jar" -lib "/Applications/oxygen/frameworks/dita/DITA-OT/lib" -lib "/Applications/oxygen/frameworks/dita/DITA-OT/lib/dost.jar" -lib "/Applications/oxygen/frameworks/dita/DITA-OT/lib/commons-codec-1.4.jar" -lib "/Applications/oxygen/lib/jing.jar" -lib "/Applications/oxygen/lib/saxon9ee.jar" -lib "/Applications/oxygen/lib/saxon.jar" -lib "/Applications/oxygen/lib/xmlgraphics-commons-1.5.jar" -lib "/Applications/oxygen/lib/fop.jar" -lib "/Applications/oxygen/lib/batik-all-1.7.jar" -lib "/Applications/oxygen/lib/xml-apis-ext.jar" -lib "/Applications/oxygen/lib/avalon-framework-4.2.0.jar" -lib "/Applications/oxygen/lib/jeuclid-core.jar" -lib "/Applications/oxygen/lib/jeuclid-fop.jar" -lib "/Applications/oxygen/lib/jh.jar" -lib "/Applications/oxygen/frameworks/dita/DITA-OT/lib/jsearch.jar" -lib "/Applications/oxygen/lib/lucene-analyzers-common-4.0.0.jar" -lib "/Applications/oxygen/lib/lucene-core-4.0.0.jar" -lib "/Applications/oxygen/frameworks/dita/DITA-OT/plugins/com.oxygenxml.webhelp /lib/xhtml-indexer.jar" -f "/Applications/oxygen/frameworks/dita/DITA-OT/build.xml" "-Dtranstype=pdf2" "-Dbasedir=/Users/ekimber/workspace_40/omics-plugin/temp/MathML-Test" "-Doutput.dir=/Users/ekimber/workspace_40/omics-plugin/temp/MathML-Test/out /pdf" "-Dwebhelp.trial.license=no" "-Ddita.temp.dir=/Users/ekimber/workspace_40/omics-plugin/temp/MathML-Test/ temp/pdf" "-Dpdf.formatter=fop" "-Ddita.dir=/Applications/oxygen/frameworks/dita/DITA-OT" "-Dretain.topic.fo=yes" "-Dclean.temp=no" "-Dxep.failOnError=true" "-Dargs.input=/Users/ekimber/workspace_40/omics-plugin/temp/MathML-Test/Mat hML-Test.ditamap" "-DbaseJVMArgLine=-Xmx384m" The process runs and I don’t get any FOP messages about the math, but the equations are not rendered. I noticed that Oxygen includes the jeuclid-core and jeuclid-fop jars and I tried copying those into the pdf2/fop/lib dir. If I run the normal Toolkit process without the Oxygen-defined -lib options (meaning it’s using the class path defined by the startCmd.sh) then FOP complains about the MathML markup as being unrecognized, even with the JEuclid libraries present (which suggests that the Toolkit’s Ant process is not automatically loading the libraries). Likewise, if I run the fop shell agains the FO file I get the same MathML complaints. I verified that both the Oxygen-supplied FOP jar and the one in my OT are 1.1, e.g.: contrext01:fop ekimber$ java -jar /Applications/oxygen/lib/fop.jar -v FOP Version 1.1 contrext01:fop ekimber$ java -jar build/fop.jar -v FOP Version 1.1 So I’m at a bit of a loss as to how Oxygen is getting the result I want and what I need to do to get that same result outside of Oxygen. What am I missing? Thanks, Eliot ————— Eliot Kimber, Owner Contrext, LLC http://contrext.com

Forms controls in tables
by Wendell Piez 06 Jan '14

06 Jan '14

Hi, So, I have a case where an element's contents are validated to an enumerated list of strings in RelaxNG. In a CSS, I have a form control that populates a pull down list of the values from the schema. This works well: account { -oxy-editable: true; content: oxy_textfield( edit, "#text", columns, 30, values ); visibility: -oxy-collapse-text; } However, when I set this element to display as a table cell in a table, I get extra vertical whitespace below it. When I remove the 'visibility' property, it displays as I expect (each table row flush with the next). But of course then I see the contents twice, once with the pull-down control, and once as normal contents. Any hints?
