Hi, After upgrading to Oxygen XML Editor 23.0, build 2020111805 on Big Sur, the dialog boxes (window) size is no longer adjustable and can’t be expanded/enlargened as previously. I have a previous version of Oxygen Author v21 installed where this does work. Thanks Bonny

Specifying information type for HTML to DITA conversions
by Kristen James Eberlein 23 Dec '20

23 Dec '20

Hi, any advice about specifying the information type for the batch converter? I installed the add-on from https://github.com/oxygenxml/oxygen-resources-converter I have a bunch of HTML files that I want to convert to task topics. Using the batch converter as-is generates "topics" rather than more specialized task topics. -- Best, Kris Kristen James Eberlein Chair, OASIS DITA Technical Committee OASIS Distinguished Contributor Principal consultant, Eberlein Consulting LLC www.eberleinconsulting.com +1 919 622-1501; kriseberlein (skype)

Related links from reltable don't show up in Oxygen Webhelp
by Yves Barbion 22 Dec '20

22 Dec '20

Hi group, I've got a bookmap with a small reltable. When I generate HTML5, I see the related links, but I don't see them in my webhelp, although the args.rellinks and webhelp.show.related.links parameters are set to "yes". Any ideas what could be wrong? I'm using Oxygen XML Editor v. 23. Kind regards Yves
