Re: [oXygen-user] Help Search highlighting

Hello Lars, Finally we succeeded to find a workaround for the JavaHelp search highlight problem. We had to make modifications to the HTML files displayed in the help viewer before they are indexed because the JavaHelp indexer computes wrong indexes. We inserted already a fixup step in the automated pipeline which produces the help archive. You can download a corrected version of the help archive for <oXygen/> 7.1 here: http://www.oxygenxml.com/update/helpFixed7.1/help.zip Just replace [oXygen-install-folder]/lib/help.zip with the downloaded file and restart <oXygen/> to see the search matches highlighted correctly.

Re: xQuery comments not supported?
by David Sewell 29 Mar '06

Exclamation points also cause problems for XQuery syntax highlighting on oXygen 7.1. Try: (: this comment and the next line are highlighted properly :) declare variable $foo := "foo"; (: the next lines are highlighted with comment color! :) for $n in 1 to 3 return $n Remove the '!' from the comment restores the correct highlighting. -- David Sewell, Editorial and Technical Manager Electronic Imprint, The University of Virginia Press PO Box 400318, Charlottesville, VA 22904-4318 USA Courier: 310 Old Ivy Way, Suite 302, Charlottesville VA 22903 Email: dsewell(a)virginia.edu Tel: +1 434 924 9973 Web: http://www.ei.virginia.edu/

Help Search highlighting
by Lars Huttar 28 Mar '06

28 Mar '06

Hello, Seeing once again your responsiveness to bug reports prompted me to report one that has been a minor irritation for quite a while. In the Help window (User Manual), I click on the Search icon. Then I type a word in the Find text field, e.g. "associate", and press Return. A list of chapters where matches are found is shown below the Find field, and the content of one of them is shown on the right. In the content pane, the searched-for keyword is highlighted. At first, this highlighting works fine, but as we get lower down in the chapter, it begins to deviate from the search terms. Near the middle of a long chapter, the highlights are not even close to the word "associate", so it's hard to find the search terms. (There's also no "next occurrence" button.) This is happening to me in Oxygen 7.1, but I remember this behavior since at least v6. I'm using Windows XP; my coworker with Mac OSX sees the same behavior. While I'm on the topic, I'd like to put in a couple of other UI requests for the Help window... - The usual title bar icons (minimize, maximize, restore) are missing. - The Help window is always on top, yet is not modal (you can still type in the main Oxygen window). Seems to me always-on-top goes with being modal. My preference would be that the Help window does not have to stay on top. Thanks, Lars

xQuery comments not supported?
by Jonas Lundberg 28 Mar '06

28 Mar '06

In xQuery, I frequently use comments like the following: (: http://localhost:8080/cocoon/ladda_in?id=cocoon&page=index/webdesign&locati… :) If I do that in oXygen, syntax highlighting does not work. Is there a good reason for this? (I have now evaluated oXygen for xQuery for a while. It seems oXygen *almost* supports working with xQyery) Best regards Hans

Re: Using oXygen in IBM Rational Application Developer

Hi, thanks for the info. I'm not committed to RAD and could chose an alternative but it needs to be very low cost (get RAD for free through IBM's academic initiative) and it would have to support WYSIWYG editing of the user interface parts. Any suggestions? Especially ones where oXygen is know to work? How about myeclipse?

Automating XML Document Chaining and Piplining
by Ray Miller 22 Mar '06

22 Mar '06

oXygen-7.0.0 (eclipse-3.1.2 plugin) Transforming a WordML document into Docbook involves "chaining" the XML document through a "pipeline" of XSL stylesheets. There are four XSL <http://www.w3.org/Style/XSL> stylesheets involved: wordml-normalise.xsl, wordml-sections.xsl, wordml-blocks.xsl and wordml-final.xsl. Example usage: xsltproc -o normalised.xml wordml-normalise.xsl my-word.xml xsltproc -o sections.xml wordml-sections.xsl normalised.xml xsltproc -o blocks.xml wordml-blocks.xsl sections.xml xsltproc -o my-docbook.xml wordml-final.xsl blocks.xml How does one configure oXygen to automate this process ???

Highlight matching brackets in xQuery?
by Jonas Lundberg 22 Mar '06

22 Mar '06

I am trying out the oXygen editor, but I was surprised that bracket matching does not seem to be supported. At least it is not enabled initially. If I have for instance the following xQuery fragment: if($mall/stream[@include="subsections"]) Then, if I select the "(" then I expect the matching ")" to be highlighted. Is this supported in oXygen? If so, how do I enable it? I found no description in the manual (although maybe I missed it). Regards Hans

Using oXygen in IBM Rational Application Developer
by Alexander Voss 21 Mar '06

21 Mar '06

Hi, I am in the process of switching from a pure Eclipse environment to IBM's Rational Application Developer and was wondering if it is possible to use the current version of oXygen in this environment. The download page suggests that oXygen only runs with Eclipse 3.1 but IBM RAD is based on 3.0. Does that mean that I would have to downgrade to oXygen 6.1 (last one that was eclipse 3.0 based) or is there another solution? I guess one would be using it stand-alone but that's not really what I'm looking for. Any ideas?

Switching perspective
by Mark Seaborne 16 Mar '06

16 Mar '06

Hi, I am using Oxygen 7.1 on OS X. I have noticed that if I move to the XSLT debugger, run a transformation to a breakpoint, step through a few lines and then stop the transform, then go back to the editor view, I can no longer get keyboard focus on the editor. If I tab away from Oxygen and then back again the keyboard is fine. All the best Mark

Default Schema Association by file extension
by James Cummings 15 Mar '06

15 Mar '06

Hi there, I'd like to set a default schema associate by file extension. I.e. I'd like all my *.odd files processed by another schema even though they are in the TEI namespace. I have it set that everything in the TEI namespace gets validated against a particular schema. So if I can't set by root element or namespace, but just want to say anything ending in .odd use this schema, is there a way to do that? I've tried basing it on filename but just putting *.odd or .odd doesn't work. Can we put a regex of some sort in here? Any suggestions appreciated. -James -- Dr James Cummings, Oxford Text Archive, University of Oxford James dot Cummings at oucs dot ox dot ac dot uk
