Inserting current date into DITA file
by Frank Dissinger 14 Feb '23

14 Feb '23

Hi Stefan, Thank you for your reply. I already did a similar thing for the MiramoPDF plug-in: <xsl:variable name="bc.currentDate" select="format-date(current-date(), '[Y0001]')"/> <xsl:template match="*[@outputclass = 'current_year']" > <xsl:value-of select="$bc.currentDate" /> </xsl:template> It was a matter of just adding this code to a "custom.xsl" file. In oXygen's CHM tranformation, I wouldn't know where add this code. I am not XSLT savvy enough.

Adding attributes to images inserted from DITA Reusable Components view
by Frank Dissinger 14 Feb '23

14 Feb '23

Hi list, I have defined Schematron rules which automatically add attributes to <image> elements when inserted. However, these rules are not applied when inserting images using the DITA Reusable Components view. Can this be done?

Expand/Collapse all with one cliock
by Frank Dissinger 14 Feb '23

Hi list, Is it possible to expand/collapse all items at the same level with just one click? I tried all combinations such as Ctrl-click, Alt-click, Shift-Ctrl-click etc., but to know avail. I refer to the Project window, DITA Maps Manager and Outline view. This would be a useful feature.

Image and table width in Author mode
by Frank Dissinger 14 Feb '23

14 Feb '23

Hi list, I publish DITA content as online help and PDF. In oXygen's Author mode I would like to make sure that images do not exceed the width of the A4-sized PDF pages. Sometimes I also place two or more inline images side by side in a paragraph and want to make sure if all of them fit on the line or if there is a line break between them. All my images have PNG format and an "otherprops="fmdpi:xxx" attribute where xxx is usually 150, in some cases 140, 160 or similar. FrameMaker, my previous XML editor, honors this attribute and scales the images appropriately. I notice that oXygen displays images bigger in its editor compared to 150 dpi images in FrameMaker. I would need to reduce all images to about 66% of their size (= by factor 1.5). Unfortunately I do not know of any CSS style which scales images based on their own pixel size. Percentage values in CSS apply to the widht or height of the viewport. Likewise, I would like to make sure that table columns are not too narrow on the PDF pages. What can I do? Any ideas are welcome.

DITA footnotes in Author mode
by Frank Dissinger 09 Feb '23

09 Feb '23

Hi list, oXygen does not seem to have any special styling for DITA footnotes in Author mode. They are just shown as inline elements in italics. Has anybody managed to style footnots with CSS in a way similar to how they would like on a page, i.e. on the bottom of the page with ascending numbers and a superscript number at the location where the footnote is referenced? I made some attempts with "fn {position: absolute; bottom: -2em}", but was not CSS-skilled enough to prevent the footnotes all being placed on top of each other. And I don't know how to implement a counter for elements that are scattered over the element tree (not children of the same element). Any ideas?

Re: [oXygen-user] Conkeyrefs not rendered on map-level
by Sascha Nothofer 02 Feb '23

02 Feb '23

Hi Radu, thanks for your analysis of my issue! Your questions and thoughts helped me to track down the problem. If you try to publish a map containing a title (or data element) with a conkeyref like this <map><title><ph conkeyref="key/productName"/></title>...</map> and if the reused element contains another element with an id attribute like this <ph id="productName"><ph id="otherId">...</ph>...</ph> then the DITA OT 3.7.3 (Oxygen 25.0 build in) is not able to resolve the reference on map level. For example the pdf front page title does not contain the referenced content. If you use conref instead, everything is fine. Conkeyrefs from topic to topic are also resolved as expected. It looks like a OT bug. Thx!

Oxygen 25.0 comes bundled with DITA OT 3.7 from what I remember, maybe there is some incompatibility between your custom PDF plugin and DITA OT 3.7. Do you have also a DITA DTD specialization plugin?

If you can reproduce about the same problem when editing and when publishing, the problem is usually somewhere in the DITA Open Toolkit publishing engine, some plugin which may not be installed.

If you edit the action "insert.table", it calls an operation named "ro.sync.ecss.extensions.dita.topic.table.InsertTableOperation" with certain parameters. One of the parameters is named "cellFragment", you can set its value to "". There are other ways to change a table, for example insert a new column, insert a new row. So actions like "insert.table.row.below" or "insert.table.column.after" which also need to be changed accordingly. 2) Inserting elements like <info> using the content completion window. Your DITA extension framework customization can contain a "cc_config.xml" file which defines that for certain elements, if they are inserted, another element should be inserted inside them as well: https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/ug-editor/topics/configure-elements-attr-cc-i… Hope this helps.

FM/OXY: Different DITA code for "conkeyref"
by Frank Dissinger 27 Jan '23

27 Jan '23

Hi list, As some of you know, I have just switched from FrameMaker to oXygen. I discovered that the two programs create different DITA code for "<dlentry conkeyref="...">. oXygen creates an empty * *tag before the closing </dlentry> tag. Are both codes equally correct? Or is one better than the other? oXygen code: <dlentry conkeyref="lib_ref/search"> <dt/> <dd>**</dd> </dlentry> FrameMaker code: <dlentry conkeyref="lib_ref/search"> <dt/> <dd/> </dlentry> Referenced dita topic: <dlentry id="search"> <dt><uicontrol keyref="color_search_box"/></dt> <dd>Use this option to quickly find a specific color if many colors are loaded.Enter the first few letters or any part of the color name. This will select the first color the name of which is matched by these characters.If your input matches multiple colors, click on the small arrow to select a color from the list. This list contains only colors with names that contain the characters you have entered.</dd> </dlentry> BTW: This difference became obvious after defining a Schematron rule which outputs an error for <dd> elements which do not have any child elements. I have defined this rule and many similar ones because I want to wrap every paragraph in wherever is valid. The FM-generated code (<dd/>) is marked up as invalid by this rule. It would be a nightmare to change all these hundreds of "conkeyref"s in all my projects. Or should I just do without this check (i.e. the second "assert")? <sch:pattern id="Check_DD"> <sch:rule context="dd"> <sch:assert test="not(text()[normalize-space()])">DD element must not contain any text.</sch:assert> <sch:assert test="*">DD does not contain any child elements</sch:assert> </sch:rule> </sch:pattern> Regards, Frank -- *Frank Dissinger* Documentation Manager .................................................................... *CGS Publishing Technologies International GmbH* *Email *frank.dissinger(a)cgs-oris.com | *Web* www.cgs-oris.com <http://www.cgs-oris.com/> *Address* Kettelerstr. 24 | D-63512 Hainburg | Germany *Phone* +49 6182 9626-27 | *Fax* +49 6182 9626-99 *Commercial register* Offenbach, HRB no. 21495 *Managing directors* Bernd Rückert, Christoph Thommessen https://www.cgs-oris.com/Signatur.png <https://www.cgs-oris.com/signatur>
