Generate Sample XML Files --> not working correctly
by Roger L Costello 19 Dec '22

19 Dec '22

Hi Folks, Sadly, Tool >> Generate Sample XML Files is not working correctly. It fails to generate lots of elements. For example, in my schema is an element with 11 child elements; the tool generated the element but with no content. It also fails on elements with a type that extends another type. Yes, I know to click on "generate optional elements." Sorry, I cannot share my schema. I am using Oxygen version 25.0 /Roger

by Alin Belu 09 Dec '22

09 Dec '22

Hello everyone, We are excited to announce that *version 5.1.0* of the *Oxygen Batch Documents Converter add-on* is now available! For the newest version of the add-on, our team of developers worked hard to bring you the following list of useful improvements: * Added two new conversions:*YAML to XML* and *XML to YAML*. * *Word to HTML/DITA * - The processing of table captions was improved. The table is now obtained with a caption child in HTML or with a title in DITA. - The width of table columns is now preserved. - The processing of figure captions was also improved. For XHTML, a <figure> element is obtained with a <figcaption> child element. For DITA, a <fig> element is obtained with a <title> child element. - The saving of images was enhanced and the name from the Word internal structure is now preserved. - Fixed an issue where the content was incorrectly merged between two different unordered lists. * Increased the minimum required version of Oxygen to 23.1. For more information on the Oxygen Batch Documents Converter add-on (including the installation steps), you can check the page below: https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/ug-editor/topics/batch-converter-addon.html Also, we want to let you know that a new article was published on the Oxygen XML Blog that explains how you can migrate from MS Word to DITA using the Oxygen Batch Documents Converter add-on: https://blog.oxygenxml.com/topics/migrating_word_to_dita_bdc/migrating_word… We hope you will find this add-on useful and as always, your feedback is welcome!

Is there a way to collapse an element from its end tag?
by Roger L Costello 16 Nov '22

16 Nov '22

Hi Folks, I have a long XML document. Sometimes, as I scroll through the document I am positioned at an element (current-element) and I want to collapse its preceding element: ... </preceding-element> <---- I want to collapse this element <current-element> The start tag for preceding-element is way up in the document; scrolling up to find the start tag is a pain. Is there a way to collapse preceding-element from its end tag? /Roger

Hello, The long-awaited Oxygen XML Editor webinar series is finally back! The autumn/winter season of live events starts on *November 23rd* with the *Integrating Various Document Formats (OpenAPI, Word, Markdown, HTML, Excel) into DITA Documentation* webinar.

During this live webinar, you will get more insight on the following subjects: * Referencing content from various types of non-DITA resources directly in DITA documents. * Dynamically converting various types of non-DITA resources to DITA while publishing. * Converting various formats into DITA and integrating them into the project.

oxy_eval?
by Scott Prentice 08 Nov '22

08 Nov '22

Just wondering if there's an "eval" custom CSS function .. ? I've got an oxy_combobox that lists a number of attributes, and would like to be able to test the selected value. If a certain attribute was selected, I want to set another attribute on the same element. I know I can do this by writing some Java code, but wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something obvious with the custom CSS functions. Thanks! ...scott
