Default zoom factor in oXygen XML Editor 17
by Yves Barbion 21 May '15

21 May '15

Hi group Is there a way to reset or revert to the default zoom factor in oXygen XML Editor 17? In one of the DITA topics I was editing, I zoomed in to, say 150 % (or something). I did so by holding down the CTRL key and using the scroll wheel on my mouse. Every topic I open or create from now on seems to be displayed at this zoom factor. I have tried to reset my "layout" (workspace) and to quit and restart oXygen, but that does not seem to help. I also looked up "zoom" in the oXygen preferences and in the Help file, but I didn't find anything relevant there. Thanks. -- Yves Barbion www.scripto.nu

Opening dialog boxes from xslt - It works!
by Patrik.Stellmann＠gdv-dl.de 20 May '15

20 May '15

Hi, I lately implemented custom saxon instructions that allow to create a message boxes or option dialogs from within an XSLT script. Since it turned out to be pretty easy to implement and very useful within my framework, I just wanted to share this idea - and the joy over oxygen, that even this is possible. One use-cases would be a transformation that potentially overwrites an existing file and asks the user before doing so (if the file already exists). The code looks like this: <xsl:if test="java:fileExists($myFile)"> <xsl:variable name="userDecision" as="xs:integer"> <gui:option-dialog title="Warning" options= "('Continue', 'Abort')" default="1"> <xsl:text/>The file '<xsl:value-of select= "$myFile"/>' already exists and will be overwritten.<xsl:text/> </gui:option-dialog> </xsl:variable> <xsl:if test="$userDecision = 1"> <xsl:message terminate="yes">Abort on user request </xsl:message> </xsl:if> </xsl:if> To implement such extension instructions you will have to implement your own java library and put it into oxygens lib folder. To do so follow the saxon documentation at http://www.saxonica.com/documentation/#!extensibility/instructions and - much more important - look at the sample of Saxon-SQL, which is included in the open source edition of saxon: http://sourceforge.net/projects/saxon/files/Saxon-HE/) Make sure to use the same version as included into oxygen! To open the actual dialog you can use something like JOptionPane.showOptionDialog( (Frame)PluginWorkspaceProvider.getPluginWorkspace ().getParentFrame(), textString, titleString, (optionList.size() == 2) ? JOptionPane.YES_NO_OPTION : JOptionPane.YES_NO_CANCEL_OPTION, JOptionPane.PLAIN_MESSAGE, null, optionList.toArray(new String[optionList.size()]), defaultOption); (If someone should be interested - I will also gladly share my java code.) There is also an entry in the forum for this: http://www.oxygenxml.com/forum/topic11531.html Regards, Patrik GDV Dienstleistungs-GmbH & Co.

Go to or search a particular line from command prompt
by Andreas Wagner 12 May '15

12 May '15

Hi list, we are currently exploring ways to establish a semi-automatic workflow for post-digitization tasks with TEI files. An external tool will generate lists of unknown words along with a value that uniquely identifies the line that the respective word is in, so I would like to be able to make oxygen go to the relevant line easily while still working in that list. (I am currently thinking along the lines of hyperlinks, or office macros in the list/spreadsheet.) Can I pass an action like "open file xy and go to line number yz" or "open file xy and search for string 'yz'" to oxygen as a commandline option (like 'vim +yz xy' or 'vim +/yz xy')? Of course I am also open to alternative approaches, although I suppose coding an oXygen plugin in java for that purpose surpasses my abilities.

oXygen XML Editor 17 support for DITA-OT 2.1?
by Jim Henderson 11 May '15

11 May '15

Hi, Really loving oXygen 17 here after just a week of use - the changes to the webhelp transformation (particularly the ability to embed the output in an iframe) is something that arrived at a perfect time for me, as I was in the middle of trying to figure out how to add our corporate header/footer to the output, and this made it much simpler. Something that we're getting ready to start doing is incorporating content written by non-writers - support staff and software developers. With the changes in DITA-OT coming up and the support for Commonmark, we've decided to leverage those capabilities to simplify our processes. I know oXygen 17 has support for DITA-OT 2.0, but I'm wondering if that support extends to 2.1, which is required to use the dita-ot-markdown plugin. As a secondary question, does anyone know of a transformation to get from DITA to Commonmark?

Re: [oXygen-user] Feature request: Improvement of Japanese search for WebHelp
by T. Hatanaka 08 May '15

Thanks for the quick turnaround. As a related but side note, I'm thinking to add to WebHelp a simple fuzzy query matching/scoring based on the Levenshtein distance ratio between the query and the index. Have you considered it in the past? I thought you might have considered it, as it would benefit not only Far Eastern cultures but probably also Western cultures. (albeit some Western's have the stemmer in WebHelp) Thanks, T.

selecting multiple attribute values
by Yves Barbion 08 May '15

08 May '15

Hi group I have just installed oXygen XML Editor 17 and I love it! Great work again from the guys from Syncro Soft. Thanks! So here is my first question: I've got a ditamap with a subjectscheme map, so my attribute values are displayed in a drop-down list in the Attributes pane. Is there a way to select multiple attribute values in this drop-down list? [image: Inline image 1] Thanks -- Yves Barbion www.scripto.nu
