WG: [OXYGEN-47679] First steps with WebHelp Responsive

Thank you, Julien, for your reply. My company has decided to deploy the help on the local computer, not on a server. Fortunately, none of your points seems to affect us: * I do not create an Index * Google Search? Users can do that on their own in their web browser. * A feedback mechanism would be good a good idea, but not an option for my company at the moment.

If you keep the files locally you will not have access to the following features: * The Kuromoji analyzer<https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/versions/28.1/ug-webhelp-responsive/topics/in…> used to index Japanese content * The Google Search Integration will not work * Oxygen Feedback search and comment section cannot be used Regards, Julien On 4/14/2026 3:51 PM, Frank Dissinger wrote: Hello support team, hello Oxygen users, Where should WebHelp Responsive be deployed? 1.

First steps with WebHelp Responsive
by Frank Dissinger 15 Apr '26

Hello all, I am a bit confused. There are transformation scenarios and publishing templates. What is each used for? Where are these things stored? I want to add them to our source code repository to have a version history and backup. I need to create WebHelp Responsive for various products in various languages. There is a shared company logo for all products. If we create OEM versions one day, however, the company logo will vary. There is a separate product logo for each product. There is a separate project folder for each product and language, which holds the root ditamap that will be processed. There is a separate output folder for each product and language. There is a special color for each product. This color should be set for: * The background of the Search panel in the main * The shortdesc element that follows a topic title; figure titles; table titles (to be handled via CSS variables) I wouldn't like to have a separate transformation scenario for every single publication. I would like to maintain only a minimum of files. How should I organize this? Ideally, all this information could be retrieved automatically from the ditamap being published. Can Oxygen create custom editor variables from ditamap information? Or can I start the transformation from a script that prompts the user for this information? Or call a script from the scenario? For CHM output, which I did previously, I created an ANT script which asked for the product and language and, based on user input, set the name of the ditamap to process, the language, output directory, location of resources such as logos, etc. Best regards Frank Dissinger Documentation Manager ..........................................

Hi everyone, We are happy to announce the release of *Oxygen Content Fusion Enterprise 9.1*, the latest version of our DITA CMS for the AI era, built to bridge the gap between XML experts and SMEs through structured content, intuitive collaboration, and agentic AI workflows. Version *9.1* makes collaboration faster and more transparent.

A new *Review Task Dashboard* gives you a centralized view of task progress, including due dates, reviewer status, associated files, and task details, making it easier to track reviews at a glance. The visual editor, powered by the latest Oxygen XML Web Author, adds sticky headers for large DITA tables, built-in *S1000D® issue 4.x* editing support, and new developer APIs for customizing the review experience. AI-assisted authoring is also enhanced with a new *Planner* chat mode that can break complex tasks into multi-step plans and delegate them to specialized AI agents. More information about *Oxygen Content Fusion Enterprise 9.1* can be found at: https://www.oxygenxml.com/content_fusion/whats_new_enterprise.html *Oxygen Content Fusion Cloud* is now available as a fully managed *SaaS (Software as a Service)* platform, so you can use content management, collaborative review, and automated publishing without local installation or server maintenance.

[ANN] Oxygen XML Editor 28.1 is Now Available!
by Alin Belu 19 Mar '26

19 Mar '26

Hi everyone, We’ve just released *Oxygen XML Editor 28.1* and I wanted to share a quick overview of some of the key additions. This release comes with important *enhancements in AI-powered workflows*, *built-in support for S1000D® issue 4.x*, *improved DITA editing and PDF publishing*, as well as introducing the new *Oxygen AI Translator add-on*. Here are a few highlights: * *Planner chat mode* A new Planner chat mode is available with the latest release of the Oxygen AI Positron add-on that allows the AI to explore your project, propose multi-step plans, and coordinate work across specialized agents. You can review each step (including tool calls and results) before execution, making it easier to handle larger tasks like bulk transformations or content migrations. * *Sensitive data masking* Personal and confidential information (such as emails, phone numbers, API keys) is automatically detected and masked before being sent to AI services (you can extend this with custom patterns) and the original data is restored in responses so your content remains accurate. * *Enhanced AI interaction and control* Files created or modified by AI are now shown directly in the chat, where you can review and accept or discard changes, down to specific fragments. There is also support for custom chat modes that can delegate tasks to specialized AI agents, tool selection to fine-tune AI capabilities, command-line integration (with your approval), and Vision support for including images in AI analysis when relevant. * *Built-in S1000D support (issue 4.x)* Built-in support for S1000D content includes schema-aware editing, validation, content completion, multiple authoring modes, BREX editing and conversion, Smart Paste from web browsers or Word documents, and ready-to-use templates for data and publication modules. * *Oxygen AI Translator add-on* A new add-on is available for XLIFF workflows that provides AI-powered translation with quality checks, structural validation, translation memory (TMX), custom instructions, caching for performance and cost control, and progress tracking with job persistence across system restarts. * *DITA and publishing improvements* You can now edit change history more easily in DITA prologs using form controls, and PDF output benefits from better font fallback at character level, improving multilingual rendering. * *Developer tooling* XProc 3.0/3.1 support is enhanced with improved Saxon XInclude handling, better options parsing, and integrated HTML5 validation. * *Comparison and collaboration updates* File comparison includes configurable comment callout widths and the option to include timestamps and user information in reports. * *Updated add-ons and components* The Git Client add-on now supports multiple worktrees and introduces an AI-assisted “Explain commit” action. The release also includes numerous library and platform updates. You can find the *full release notes for Oxygen XML Editor 28.1 here*: https://www.oxygenxml.com/xml_editor/whats_new.html As always, feedback is very welcome. Feel free to share how these changes impact your workflows.

[ANN] Oxygen AI Positron 8.1 is Now Available!
by Alin Belu 11 Feb '26

11 Feb '26

Hello everyone, We are proud to announce the immediate availability of the *Oxygen AI Positron 8.1* plugins for all major Oxygen XML suite products, including Oxygen XML Editor, Author, Developer (desktop and Eclipse distributions), Oxygen JSON Editor, Oxygen XML Web Author, and Oxygen Content Fusion. This update transforms XML authoring from a manual task into an orchestrated, agentic experience, integrating OpenAI’s most advanced models and a sophisticated new "Planner" mode designed to handle complex, project-wide transformations. As AI moves from simple chat prompts to autonomous execution, Oxygen AI Positron 8.1 ensures that technical communicators and developers stay ahead of the curve with improved security, lower costs, and unprecedented flexibility. **************************************** *New in Oxygen AI Positron 8.1* **************************************** * *Next-Generation Intelligence with GPT-5.2* The 8.1 release marks the integration of *OpenAI’s GPT-5.2 and GPT-5.2 Thinking* models, delivering state-of-the-art AI capabilities for complex, multi-step agentic tasks. To maintain a modern ecosystem, support for legacy models like GPT-4 has been retired in favor of these more intelligent alternatives. * *The "Planner": Your New AI Project Manager* The standout feature of version 8.1 is the *Planner Chat Mode*. Designed for resource-intensive, project-wide operations, such as converting all cross-references across a DITA map or translating an entire folder, the Planner does more than just answer questions. It explores the project, proposes a comprehensive multi-step plan, and, upon user approval, delegates tasks to specialized AI agents. This "agentic" approach bypasses traditional LLM context limits, allowing for massive changes without losing oversight. * *Sensitive Data Masking* Recognizing the importance of data privacy, Oxygen AI Positron 8.1 introduces built-in *Sensitive Data Masking*. - *Automatic Protection*: The system identifies and masks Personal Identifiable Information (email addresses, API keys, phone numbers) before requests reach the LLM. Customizable masking patterns are available for additional data types. - *Seamless Restoration*: Masked data is automatically restored in the AI's response, ensuring the final XML content remains accurate and secure. * *Important Enhancements* - *Optimized Efficiency*: Prompt engineering improvements have significantly reduced token consumption, lowering the cost per operation for high-volume users. - *Customizable AI Tools*: New tools selector to enable or disable specific AI tools for each chat mode, support for creating custom chat modes, and actions with vision support for image analysis, allow tailoring the AI behavior to specific requirements. - *Advanced Document Handling*: Attached PDF and Word documents now preserve their internal structure (headings, tables, and styles), making document conversion and analysis more precise than ever. - *Integrated Review Experience*: Review and manage AI-modified files directly in the chat, enabling surgical precision when accepting changes. - *Expanded Toolset*: New tools, such as the ones for command-line operations, resource management (copy/move/rename), and directory listing give the AI more "hands" to accomplish complex tasks. **************************************** *Availability* **************************************** *Oxygen AI Positron 8.1* is available for Oxygen XML Editor, Author, and Developer (desktop and Eclipse), JSON Editor, Web Author, and Content Fusion. For the complete list of features added in Oxygen AI Positron 8.1, please see: https://www.oxygenxml.com/ai_positron/whats_new.html For more information about the Oxygen AI Positron plug-ins visit: https://www.oxygenxml.com/ai_positron.html Best regards, Alin -- Alin Belu Oxygen XML Editor _______________________________________________ oXygen-user mailing list -- oxygen-user(a)oxygenxml.com To unsubscribe send an email to oxygen-user-leave(a)oxygenxml.com

Project Filters... hiding the current directory
by public＠booksongaming.com 02 Feb '26

02 Feb '26

IN Oxygen XML editor, is it possible to use project filters to: * Hide everything in the current directory (but show things in subdirectories)? * Hide all *.xml files in the current directory (but show xml files in subdirectories)? I've tried the usual ways of referring to the current directory and its contents ("." and "./" and "./*.xml) in both the section "matching files will be hidden" and "matching directories will be hidden" but could make neither work. With thanks, David Levy _______________________________________________ oXygen-user mailing list -- oxygen-user(a)oxygenxml.com To unsubscribe send an email to oxygen-user-leave(a)oxygenxml.com
