Disabling commits to other then git master branch in Web Author
by Jirka Kosek 14 Feb '20

14 Feb '20

Hi, I'm using Web Author with Git. When file is modified it can be commited back to repository by invoking "Commit" dialog from menu. However dialog box for commit has two options: * Commit on branch: master * Commit on a new branch In our scenario we don't want writers to create new branches. Is it possible to disable this option in the dialog box?

Request for changes in xquery indentation
by France Baril 06 Jan '20

06 Jan '20

Hi, At the last DITA Europe Conference, I discussed xquery indentation in Oxygen with Radu. As there are no universal rules, he proposed I send my suggestions. So here are some suggestions that would truly help me. If they don't get unanimous approval, I would suggest that some of them become configurable in preferences. I attached an xml file that is indented as I prefer (so please do open it without automatic indent). I included comments that indicate the proposed changes. When you apply indent you can experience the issues yourself. Thank you -- France Baril Architecte documentaire / Documentation architect france.baril(a)architextus.com

eXist-db in <oXygen/>?
by David Birnbaum 29 Dec '19

29 Dec '19

Dear oxygen-user list, I've constructed an XQuery script for eXist-db that uses the function request:get-parameter(). It works as expected in eXide. I have established a data source connection between <oXygen/> (XML Editor 21.1, build 2019120214, running on MacOS Mojave) and eXist-db (5.0.0) running on localhost, and I can open, edit, and save XQuery scripts from inside eXist-db within <oXygen/>, from which I conclude that the connection is live. Since <oXygen/> apparently cannot use the eXist-db data source connection for debugging, instead of using the <oXygen/> XQuery debugger perspective to run the script I configured a transformation scenario where I specify the localhost eXist-db connection as the Transformer. When I run this script, I get the following error message from <oXygen/>: err:XPDY0002 Variable $request is not bound to an Java object The function is used in a line that reads: declare variable $story_id as xs:string := request:get-parameter('story', 'x'); I thought at first that the error might be because the "request:" namespace prefix was not declared and bound (eXist-db declares it implicitly), so I added an explicit namespace declaration for it: declare namespace request="http://exist-db.org/xquery/request"; The error remains. The entire XQuery script is below; it retrieves information from a TEI document, based on a user-supplied resource name, if the document exists and returns an error message otherwise. Can someone please help me identify what I have apparently misunderstood about running XQuery scripts in an <oXygen/> transformation scenario using eXist-db as the XQuery transformer? Sincerely, David djbpitt(a)gmail.com __ xquery version "3.1"; declare default element namespace "http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0"; declare namespace request="http://exist-db.org/xquery/request"; declare variable $stories as document-node()+ := collection('/db/apps/neh_06_reading_tei/xml'); declare variable $story_id as xs:string := request:get-parameter('story', 'x'); declare variable $story_filename as xs:string: = concat($story_id, '.xml'); declare variable $story as document-node()? := $stories[ends-with(base-uri(), $story_filename)]; if ($story) then <TEI>{ $story//(titleStmt/title | text) }</TEI> else <error xmlns="">{concat('No such story:', $story_id)}</error>

Spell check: Forbidden words in a term list
by Kristen James Eberlein 13 Dec '19

13 Dec '19

Is there a way to suggest a replacement? For example, if I make "barcode" a forbidden word, can the Spell check message suggest "bar code"? -- Best, Kris Kristen James Eberlein Chair, OASIS DITA Technical Committee Principal consultant, Eberlein Consulting www.eberleinconsulting.com +1 919 622-1501; kriseberlein (skype)

Non-breaking spaces in fragments via framework
by Christian Achter 09 Dec '19

09 Dec '19

Dear mailinglist members, this might be a trivial problem, but even after a longer research I haven't found a solution to it. I try to insert a non-breaking space via a button created by a framework. I use the following code within an <action>: <actionMode> <field name="xpathCondition"> <String></String> </field> <field name="argValues"> <serializableOrderedMap> <entry> <String>text</String> *<String>{CODE_FOR_THE_NON-BREAKING_SPACE}</String>* </entry> </serializableOrderedMap> </field> <field name="operationID"> <String>ro.sync.ecss.extensions.commons.operations.InsertOrReplaceTextOperation</String> </field> </actionMode> I added a placeholder CODE_FOR_THE_NON-BREAKING_SPACE above to show you were I want to fill in my non-breaking space. I tried   which caused my whole framework to NOT be read by Oxygen XML Author. I tried   which just created a regular space. I tried &#160; which just created exactly these characters as a string in my XML document. I tried several other things which all didn't work. What do I have to put between my opening and closing <String> tags? Thanks in advance and kind regards Christian Achter

Web Author and more then one git submodules
by Jirka Kosek 06 Dec '19

06 Dec '19

Hi, I'm testing Web Author with git submodules as it seems that submodules should be supported if enabled in git plugin configuration. In my setup if I have just one submodule in git then everything works ok. But if there are more submodules added into one repo then only first submodule works correctly. For other submodules Web Authors shows no files when I try to open file using dashboard. Is this known limitation or possible quirk? Cheers, Jirka P.S. I know that submodules is tricky feature itself but it fits our needs and I got impression that Web Author should support it. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------ Jirka Kosek e-mail: jirka(a)kosek.cz http://xmlguru.cz ------------------------------------------------------------------ Professional XML and Web consulting and training services DocBook/DITA customization, custom XSLT/XSL-FO document processing ------------------------------------------------------------------ Bringing you XML Prague conference http://xmlprague.cz ------------------------------------------------------------------
