Multi-row tabs?
by Jostein Austvik Jacobsen 02 Oct '17

I often have a lot of XML-files open simultaneously. Is it possible to configure multiple rows of tabs? Something similar to this: http://winaero.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/Firefox-with-multi-row-t… Jostein

Re: [oXygen-user] Pretty Print <lb/> in Oxygen
by Syd Bauman 12 Jan '16

A few hours ago Ute Recker-Hamm posted a wonderful question to TEI-L, the main list for the Text Encoding Initiative.[1] She basically asked "what do y'all do to get your physical lines, as encoded with the empty TEI <lb> element, to line up nicely in oXygen?". I remember asking a similar question a few years ago, and vaguely recall being told that manipulating the options under "Preferences > Editor / Format / XML" (in particular the "Preserve space" and "Default space" lists) should get format-and-indent to do the trick. However, I recall that I never got it working to my satisfaction, and when I look through the archives of this list now, I can't find the answer I recall. So what is "it" that I want format-and-indent to do? When given a text that looks like this: view A ---- - I call our world Flatland, not because we call it so, but to make <lb/>its nature clearer to you, my happy readers, who are privileged to live <lb/>in Space. Imagine a vast sheet of paper on which straight Lines, Triangles, <lb/>Squares, Pentagons, Hexagons, and other figures, instead of remaining <lb/>fixed in their places, move freely about, on or in the surface, but without <lb/>the power of rising above or sinking below it, very much like shadows <lb/>—only hard with luminous edges—and you will then have a pretty <lb/>correct notion of my country and countrymen. Alas, a few years ago, <lb/>I should have said “my universe:” but now my mind has been opened <lb/>to higher views of things. I'd like it to end up formatted as it is now -- with each <lb> starting a new line. If the desired line length were long enough, it wouldn't be changed at all. If the desired line length were shorter, it might look like this: view B ---- - I call our world Flatland, not because we call it so, but to make <lb/>its nature clearer to you, my happy readers, who are privileged to live <lb/>in Space. Imagine a vast sheet of paper on which straight Lines, Triangles, <lb/>Squares, Pentagons, Hexagons, and other figures, instead of remaining <lb/>fixed in their places, move freely about, on or in the surface, but without <lb/>the power of rising above or sinking below it, very much like shadows <lb/>—only hard with luminous edges—and you will then have a pretty <lb/>correct notion of my country and countrymen. Alas, a few years ago, <lb/>I should have said “my universe:” but now my mind has been opened <lb/>to higher views of things. What I *don't* want is for format-and-indent to make it look like this: view C ---- - I call our world Flatland, not because we call it so, but to make <lb/>its nature clearer to you, my happy readers, who are privileged to live <lb/>in Space. Imagine a vast sheet of paper on which straight Lines, Triangles, <lb/>Squares, Pentagons, Hexagons, and other figures, instead of remaining <lb/>fixed in their places, move freely about, on or in the surface, but without <lb/>the power of rising above or sinking below it, very much like shadows <lb/>—only hard with luminous edges—and you will then have a pretty <lb/>correct notion of my country and countrymen. Alas, a few years ago, <lb/>I should have said “my universe:” but now my mind has been opened <lb/>to higher views of things. In fact, if I had my druthers, an input document that looked like view C would come out of the processing looking like view A or B. Note ---- [1] Those of you who are members of a TEI list at Brown can find it at https://listserv.brown.edu/?A2=ind1410&L=tei-l&F=&S=&P=64155. I have not re-produced it here because I did not get the original poster's permission to do so. (Not that I think it is illegal or immoral to re-post without such permission, only that it's rude.)

Re: [oXygen-user] Help with XPath -- SOLVED
by Mary Anthony 06 Dec '14

OK, I was able to solve this. My problem being that I forgot the varialbe_keywords.ditamap was not always *being processed* --- so it was an external file located in the temp output dir during processing. So, the solution is, set a path to the file:  <xsl:param name="PATH2PROJ"> <xsl:apply-templates select="/processing-instruction('path2project-uri')[1]" mode="get-path2project"/> </xsl:param> <xsl:param name="WORKDIR"> <xsl:apply-templates select="/processing-instruction('workdir-uri')[1]" mode="get-work-dir"/> </xsl:param> <xsl:variable name="VAR-FILE" select="concat($WORKDIR,$PATH2PROJ,'variable_keywords.ditamap')"/> Then use the doc() function to point to this external file: <xsl:comment> <xsl:value-of select="doc($VAR-FILE)/map/keydef[@keys='var_release_version']/topicmeta/keywords/keyword"/> </xsl:comment> If anyone knows a more elegant solution, feel free to post it back.

Help with XPath
by Mary Anthony 05 Dec '14

05 Dec '14

Hi, I am adding a comment to each file that contains a release number. The release number is one of many variables defined in a *variable_keywords.ditamap* file. This file is a child of my main *ditamap*. Using the XPath Builder, I tested and found this path located the node I needed. (Below is a pic showing the path succeeding.) When I encode this path in the dita2webhelp.xsl file, the transformation succeeds but the node's RELEASE_VERSION content is not output: <xsl:comment> <xsl:value-of select="/map/keydef[@keys='var_release_version']/topicmeta/keywords/keyword"/> </xsl:comment> What am I doing wrong?

Hi all, is there a way of prompting the user before closing an invalid file? I have some encoders who would really appreciate such a feature … Many thanks for any advice Peter -- Peter Stadler Carl-Maria-von-Weber-Gesamtausgabe Arbeitsstelle Detmold Gartenstr. 20 D-32756 Detmold Tel. +49 5231 975-665 Fax: +49 5231 975-668 stadler at weber-gesamtausgabe.de www.weber-gesamtausgabe.de
