Ghost Instance of Oxygen Running
by McDonald, Shaun 22 Dec '10

22 Dec '10

Hello All, I noticed that when I open Oxygen, my taskbar will show two instances (buttons). Only one of them would max/minimize the application on click. The version is 11.2. How can I fix this? Are there side effects on the JVM costs? Thanks, Shaun

XML AUTHOR + Docbook5: Problems with using custom HTML chunk scenarios (parameters conflict with customization layer)
by Robert Nagle 15 Dec '10

15 Dec '10

I have been having a persistent problem with doing HTML-chunk transformations with Docbook 5 and Oxygen 12. I think I had similar problems with Oxygen 11 too. I wrote a xsl customization layer rjstyle.xsl. Initially what I thought I could do was to duplicate the HTML-chunk scenario and change the XSL URL to rjstyle.xsl. But I discover that a few of my parameter settings are not working. That is because the parameter values I am giving in rjstyle.xsl are differing from the preset parameters in Oxygen's HTML chunk scenarios. Oxygen's parameter settings are overriding my own in rjstyle.xsl. QUESTION: Is there a way to tell your Edit Scenario dialog for the parameter settings in rjstyle.xsl to override whatever presets Oyxgen put into its out-of-the-box Docbook scenarios? The answer would seem to be to create a new scenario from scratch. However, whenever I do that, I seem to receive a lot of compiler errors. To give an example of what I mean by errors: 1)Engine name: Saxon6.5.5 Severity: error Description: ch01.html (Access is denied) Engine name: Saxon6.5.5 Severity: error Description: The system cannot find the path specified (With both types of errors, it works fine when I use the out-of-the-box docbook chunk scenarios. Also, I have torn out all the excess stuff from rjstyle.xsl except for: <xsl:import href="../../../1latest/docbook-xsl-1.76.1/html/chunk.xsl"/> 2)non-validating XHTML code. It won't show in the browser. (this is less common than the above two; might be a fluke with my current project). If I use Oxygen's chunk XSL defaults and add rjstyle.xsl as an additional XSLT stylesheet (an option in the Edit Scenario dialog), I get an error: SystemID: I:\My Documents\My Dropbox\xml\testbug2\index2.xml Engine name: Saxon6.5.5 Severity: error Description: Cannot apply cascading transformation. Reason: org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: A well-formed document requires a root element. One of the complicating factors here is that the Edit Scenario dialog (with 3 tags) has a lot of options. It's good that the Oxygen team can compress so many options into one dialog; on the other hand, it's hard to transfer settings into a New Scenario and be certain you have copied everything. QUESTION: Do you have any hints about creating Docbook transformations from scratch that avoid the Access is denied and system cannot find the path specified errors? I realize that I am not giving you enough information about my specific project. But I suspect that you may have some general ideas about what is wrong (besides, my brain is growing weary). By the way, you might be wondering why I am not content using an out-of-the-box chunk scenario. 1)I find it cumbersome to edit the parameter list (and don't have a way to save my settings in an easy-to-read format) and 2)It's easier for me to hard code the latest docbook xsl in a user directory rather than a system directory. -- Robert Nagle 12777 Ashford Point Dr #1417 Houston, Texas 77082 713 893 3424 http://www.robertnagle.info

DocType Association & Insert Character Actions
by McDonald, Shaun 14 Dec '10

14 Dec '10

Hi, I'm building Author frameworks and would like to provide editors with a finite list of special characters to insert via a toolbar. I've noticed that defining a character's value as the letter itself is fine, but our data models require that only hex values be used in XML documents. I've tried inserting the hex value directly into the action definition, but this only produces text in the Author view. Example, an attempt to insert this, Á, results in &#xc1; in the XML. Of course, no frameworks feature is available in text view which seems to force the use of the Entity Panel. How can I create a DocType Association action for inserting hex entities? Thanks, Shaun

XProc/Oxygen/Validation
by Betty Harvey 24 Nov '10

24 Nov '10

My XProc pipeline is failing because Xproc is validating the input file. The input files have both public identifiers and system identifiers (which don't point to the correct location). I am using an XML catalog within Oxygen that points to correct location of the DTD and validates within Oxygen. Is there a way to tell XProc or Calabash to look at the catalog.xml file? Another option would be to tell XProc or Calabash don't validate the input file. TIA!

by Bob Beims 23 Nov '10

I'm launching oXygen 11.2 via a JavaScript in a web UI which calls /Applications/oXygen/oxygenMac.sh I've added the line -Dcom.oxygenxml.MultipleInstances=false \ to oxygenMac.sh, and have also added "-Dcom.oxygenxml.MultipleInstances=false" to VMOptions in /Applications/oXygen/Oxygen.app/Contents/Info.plist But even with these properties specified, I'm getting multiple instances of oXygen each time I open a file via the web UI. Details: - oXygen 11.2 - OS X 10.6.5 - JRE 1.6.0_22 Any ideas on how to fix this? TIA, Bob

Resizable XPath toolbar entry field?
by David Sewell 21 Nov '10

21 Nov '10

I often want to compose a relatively long XPath search in the XPath toolbar without taking the time to open the XPath Builder window. I have a wide screen and would be happy if the XPath toolbar entry field were twice as wide as it is. Is there any way to resize it? If not, I would suggest as a feature request that the form should be resizable.

prevent multiple instances on OS X
by Bob Beims 17 Nov '10

17 Nov '10

I've read a couple of postings here about adding the property -Dcom.oxygenxml.MultipleInstances=false to the Java command line in the oxygen launch sh script. I've added that property to my environment, but I'm still getting multiple instances when launching via the sh. Is there something different that must be done on OS X versus Linux (which is the OS discussed in the threads I've seen)? more details: oXygen 12, OS X 10.6.5, JRE 1.6.0_22 TIA, Bob
