xslt & cdata
by Reaves, Timothy 17 Jul '13

17 Jul '13

I'm transforming an SVG, and the SVG has a style node. The contents are in a CDATA wrapper. The CDATA wrapper is being stripped in the copy. I've added the line <xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes" cdata-section-elements="style"/> to my stylesheet, but, the output still has the CDATA wrapper stripped. Would anyone know why?

Find and replace with lowercase
by Yudong Chen 11 Jul '13

11 Jul '13

Hello, everyone, I was trying to find and change some attribute values to lowercase in hundreds of xml files, using the Find and Replace feature of Oxygen, but without success. For example, there are many values reading like this (just example): <mediaobject> <imageobject> <imagedata fileref="../images/AbcdEfg.png" width=".81cm"/> </imageobject> </mediaobject> I succeeded in finding all of those values using regular expression but I don't know how to replace them with their lowercase versions. Have you ever succeeded in doing the same thing? Would you please share the way you did it? Or it is just impossible with Oxygen? Thanks, Yudong

Re: [oXygen-user] Missing booklists
by Oxygen XML Editor Support 10 Jul '13

10 Jul '13

Hi Matt, Sorry about that, you are right, I should have checked first. Indeed <booklists> is allowed in any place in the <frontmatter>. I looked in the code and it seems that we decided at some point not to present in the DITA Maps Manager's contextual menu possible child elements which were valid to append but which did not allow the @href attribute on them (the @href attribute is prohibited in a <booklists>). Probably we did this because when you decide to add such an element from the contextual menu the dialog used to insert a topic reference pops up, dialog which is usually used to set an @href reference to the topic. I'll add an issue for this and try to handle things better on our side.

The actions you are trying to use in the DITA Maps Manager are grouped in a sub-menu called "Append child". This means that Oxygen proposes in that list only elements which can be inserted as the last children of <frontmatter>. And as you already have child topicrefs (or > keyredefs) in the <frontmatter> Oxygen does not propose <booklists> anymore. > When you edit the DITA map in the main editor you probably place the caret before the inserted content in the <frontmatter> so Oxygen proposes <booklists> as a valid content completion choice. > > So this is not a bug in Oxygen but unfortunately in this case Oxygen does not help either, you only have the possibilities to "Append Child" > and "Insert after" which make it impossible to insert using the DITA Maps Manager view the <booklists> as the first child of <frontmatter>. > If you have any suggestions which would improve our current behavior they are as usual welcomed. > > Regards, > Radu > > Radu Coravu > <oXygen/> XML Editor, Schema Editor and XSLT Editor/Debugger http://www.oxygenxml.com > > On 7/9/2013 8:34 PM, KAATMAN Matthew wrote: >> Hey Guys, >> >> This may be obvious, but when I right click frontmatter.

Missing booklists

Hey Guys, This may be obvious, but when I right click frontmatter. It appears to be missing booklists in the context menu. However, if I go into XML view, you'll notice that it does appear in the element lists. (See attached) What am I doing wrong? Thanks!

Integrating an SVG editor with oXygen
by practice innovation 04 Jul '13

04 Jul '13

Hi Bob, > This is to support those users who come from a desktop publishing tool background and are "bothered" by needing to open multiple tools to edit different object types and then inserting links from DITA topics to point to images and equations. > So I want to associate SVGs with Inkscape (or perhaps some other tool) and MathML with MathFlow so that when users want to create an image or equation they simply select the appropriate action from the Insert menu and the proper tool is created and appropriate markup added to the DITA file. Alternatively, if they double-click on an already-rendered equation or image, the appropriate editor will launch. Editing Equations: If you are using MathFlow, your problems must be solved. Aren’t they? Editing Non-SVG-Images If you double click a graphic, it is opened by an external editor. This editor is the application, which is assigned to this file extension (at least on Windows). Editing SVG-images If you double click an svg, oXygen fragment editor is opened. I don’t know, if you can configure oXygen that referenced svgs are handled like jpg-graphics. Perhaps this could solve your problem if it’s possible. @George: is it possible to change this behavior? Let’s assume it’s possible: - Assign Inkscape (or any other SVG Editor) to svg file extension. - If an SVG is double clicked your SVG is opened in an external editor Creating Equations/SVGs So you need a solution/extension for creating a new graphic/equation: - Implement and author extension with oXygen SDK - This Extension - creates a rudimental SVG/MathML file - sets a link to your image-Element - opens the SVG/MathML file in your external edtior If you provide a parameter for this author extension, where you can configure the XML string for the rudimental file, you have your “unified” solution. Visio-Files Saving SVG and VSD files out of Visio is not a job of oXygen or any oXygen extension. If you want to do such automation you have to extend Visio, to save an SVG automatically, when a VSD is saved. Although Visio has an SVG import filter, it always creates a copy and doesn’t work on the original SVG file. So I think it’s not a good idea to open an SVG in Visio for editing. But I can imaging following XML based workflow, as VISIO 2003-2010 supports an Visio XML file format VDX. So you have to enhance the workflow above and provide a rudimental VDX xml string, which is opened in VISIO. Create a second, rudimental SVG file, too, which is referenced in your DITA topic. Tell your users they have to save vdx and svg format or implement a plugin for MS Visio which does this automatically, when vdx is saved. (Of course you can transform vdx to svg by XSLT, but this will be a hard work) Editing this SVG means to open VDX file when SVG is referenced. So you have set a flag somewhere, your extensions knows it should go a specific way. (Perhaps another file extension or attribute?) But take care: In Visio 2013 VDX is a zip container like pptx, docx a.s.o. BTW: Any SVG-Editor put’s its own stuff to the SVG (especially Visio). You will run into validation errors if you are using the embedding svg method. Don’t know if Batic has any problem with rendering this stuff in oXygen (referenced or embedded) or FOP. So I think perhaps it would be a good idea, to think about and XSLT postprocess, which makes a native svg version 1.1 out of that stuff. Hope this helps Markus

Integrating an SVG editor with oXygen
by practice innovation 04 Jul '13

04 Jul '13

Hi Bob, I saw George already answered to your question this early morning. With the extension George mentioned you are able to edit embedded SVG images too. So if you add an empty SVG-Element to your content and execute that function, you are able to create a new SVG image. Thats not nice at the moment, but its not a hard work enhancing this functionality that way. This functionality works with any SVG editor (Inkscape and Adobe Illustrator are used in my projects) and it works with any XML flavor which supports embedded SVG (not DITA only). SVG images are always embedded to your XML content file and arent referenced to file system. Our first thinking of implementing this extension was a reuse of existing images in different contexts. You want to create one single image, enhance it and use it in different manners. As this SVG is embedded we dont think about any reuse. Perhaps in DITA it could make sense to enhance the reuse potential by using conref functionality, but this of course depends on the requirements, concepts and processes. Im not sure about your use case(s). Could you provide more information, please.

conkeyref preview with nested conrefs
by KAATMAN Matthew 24 Jun '13

24 Jun '13

In the latest Oxygen, I stumbled upon an issue that may be a minor bug. Ultimately the preview for Insert Content key reference -> Sub-topic doesn't show the full contents if you nest conrefs. For example: I have a keydef to a collection of product names that contains: <ph id="line_BacT"><tm tmtype="reg">BacT⁠/⁠ALERT</tm></ph> <ph id="prod_Virtuo"><tm tmtype="tm">Virtuo</tm></ph> Then there's an item that nests the above two conrefs: <ph id="prod_NewBacTAlert"><ph conref="#concept_C8D50348E99740B484761C442690972C/line_BacT" /> <ph conref="#concept_C8D50348E99740B484761C442690972C/prod_Virtuo" /></ph> A conkeyref to prod_NewBacTAlert should display "BacT/Alert Virtuo" in the preview. Instead the preview is blank for that item. It still inserts properly and renders fine so it's only in the preview display.
