[Ann] Webinar: Working with DITA in Oxygen - Advanced Profiling and Reuse Strategies (3 February)
by Alin Belu 29 Jan '21

29 Jan '21

Hello, If becoming advanced in profiling and reusing DITA content is one of this year’s resolutions, then you're in luck! Next Wednesday (February 3), make time for the third installment of the “Working with DITA in Oxygen” webinar series. In this live event titled “Advanced Profiling and Reuse Strategies”, Sorin Carbunaru (software developer at Syncro Soft) returns to help you achieve mastery in more advanced DITA concepts, such as: * Conref ranges – easily create content references to ranges of adjacent (sibling) elements. * Conref push - an alternate way of creating content references by injecting element values from the source element into a topic where it is to be re-used. * Subject scheme maps - create custom controlled values and manage metadata attribute values for an organization or a project without having to write a DITA specialization. * Profiling attribute groups - used to support situations where an attribute applies to multiple specialized subcategories. * Key scopes - specify different sets of key definitions for different map branches. * Branch filtering - set filtering conditions for specific branches of a map. This is a free event and you can register at http://www.oxygenxml.com/evs2021-3.html Make sure to check the full list of our upcoming events: https://www.oxygenxml.com/events_programme.html Best regards, Alin -- Alin Belu Oxygen XML Editor

View images in DITA Reusable Components in a different order: most recent files first?
by Yves Barbion 28 Jan '21

Hi group, I see that the images in the DITA Reusable Components are arranged in alphabetical order. I guess there is no way to change this order, for example to see the most recent files first? Kind regards Yves

Re: [oXygen-user] Regular expression search regarding your product

Hi Masamitsu, I'm afraid I do not have a good idea about how to do this. Indeed with a regexp expression you can select the entire text: (1), (2), and (3)terminal but I have no solution for the situation in which you want the Find Next to find sequentially (1), (2) and (3).

[Ann] Webinar: Engage everyone in the technical documentation process (27 January)
by Alin Belu 26 Jan '21

26 Jan '21

Hello, Don't forget to register for tomorrow's Oxygen live event! On January 27, during the “Engage everyone in the technical documentation process” live webinar, Bogdan Dumitru, software developer at Syncro Soft, will show you how Oxygen Content Fusion is a platform for all, not just for technical writers. You will see firsthand how it can positively impact the activity of each person involved in the technical documentation process: * Technical writers who have full control over the content - the gate keepers of the documentation source. * Subject matter experts (SMEs) who can create and push documentation drafts to technical writers. * Users that can now propose changes just by following a link in the published output. Along with the presented use-cases, this live event will also highlight DITA-specific features as well as some of the new additions brought to Content Fusion 4.0, in particular the concurrent editing support that allows you and your team to edit and review the same document simultaneously. This is a free event and you can register at http://www.oxygenxml.com/evs2021-5.html Make sure to check the full list of our upcoming events: https://www.oxygenxml.com/events_programme.html Best regards, Alin -- Alin Belu Oxygen XML Editor

[Ann] Oxygen Git Client add-on v2.4 has been released!
by Alin Belu 11 Jan '21

11 Jan '21

Hello, We are excited to announce the release of Oxygen Git Client add-on version 2.4! One of the most important features found in the newest version of the add-on is the addition of the "Abort merge" action for when conflicts result after a Pull (merge) operation. This allows you to abort the current conflict resolution process. Other improvements added in version 2.4 of the Oxygen Git Client add-on that expand its functionality even further include: * The addition of a quick find filter to the Git History view. * A new set of options in the Git Client preferences page that can be used to decide whether to always switch to a newly detected working copy from a project, to never switch, or to always ask. * The "Preferences" action was added in the Settings menu that acts as a shortcut to the Git Client preferences page. * An issue was fixed where pushing to a remote branch with a different name than the one of the local branches did not work. * Numerous other bug fixes were integrated, along with UI improvements, and speed improvements. * The JGit component included in the Git Client was updated to version 5.10.0. Also, make sure to check the README page for the Git Client add-on on GitHub: https://github.com/oxygenxml/oxygen-git-plugin/blob/master/README.md We hope that you will enjoy using the latest release of the Oxygen Git Client add-on as much as we enjoyed developing it!

Oxygen XML Editor 23.0, build 2020111805 Dialog Boxes no longer adjustable
by Bonny Shezifi 23 Dec '20

23 Dec '20

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
