Re: [oXygen-user] XPath keywords
by Nico Kutscherauer 02 Apr '15

02 Apr '15

Dear oXygen team, This popped up today and I thought it would be cool if you could implement it (maybe in v17.1, if it is to much for v17): It would be nice if the XPath auto completion would know the following keywords and operators: - except - intersect - union - some - every - in* - satisfies* - if - then* - else* - for - return* - or - and - instance of - castable as ...did I missed one? *depending on the required keywords before Best Regards and thanks for v17 beta!

Here is my problem with using DITA-OT. I am just starting to use the "Filtering" feature when I encounter the following issue: Here is how I run the DITA-OT: java -jar lib/dost.jar /i:/conditional-text.ditamap /filter:plumbers.ditaval /outdir:. /transtype:pdf2 And here is the result: BUILD FAILED D:\DITA-OT\build.xml:44: The following error occurred while executing this line: D:\DITA-OT\plugins\org.dita.base\build_preprocess.xml:24: Failed to run pipeline: [DOTJ012F][FATAL] Failed to parse the input file 'D:\DITA-OT\conditional-text.ditamap'. The XML parser reported the following error: : conditional- text.ditamap Line 2:cvc-elt.1.a: Cannot find the declaration of element 'val'. Here is the content of my conditional-text.ditamap <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <val> <prop att="audience" val="electricians" action="include"/> <prop att="audience" val="plumbers" action="exclude"/> </val> Can anyone tell me how to fix this?Thanks!

Toolbar action for specific transformation scenario?
by Tony Graham 25 Mar '15

25 Mar '15

Is it possible to configure a toolbar action that will run a specific transformation scenario from the current framework? It's possible to make one scenario the default scenario, I know, but I'm looking at providing multiple transformation scenarios, and I'd prefer it if the eventual users could choose their actions without even having to go to the trouble of selecting and unselecting items in the 'Transformation Scenarios' view, if that's possible.

DiffCompare and Oxygen editor
by Shannon 17 Mar '15

17 Mar '15

Hi, when I save an edit in Diff Files of a file open in an Oxygen editor, it is supposed to automatically refresh the document? In my particular case just now it didn’t. Caused some confusion. I closed and reopened the file manually in order to see the changes reflected. The editor asks if the user wants to reload the document if it’s changed in the file system, is it possible to automate and/or detect changes from Diff Files, especially considering the input file is selected from the list of documents currently open in Oxygen? Best, Shannon

Distributing Dita filters in Oxygen 15.2
by Nathan 13 Mar '15

13 Mar '15

Hi, We use Oxygen 15.2 and distribute dita filters via the default-options.xml file to our writers (using the global option). But whenever there is an update to this file and the file is imported by our writers, it wipes out the writers preset options. Is there any way of retaining the authoring presets of the writers while allowing for us to keep distributing our dita filters this way? It would be great if there is a default-options.xml file where we have the filtering options and then a user-options.xml which can override some of the default options. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Nathan

Sort review comments by date?
by Tony Graham 06 Mar '15

06 Mar '15

Would it be possible/reasonable to be have the option to sort the comments in the 'Review' view by date? In a document with lots of comments, I want to easily find the latest ones. I can restrict the visible comments to just those from my reviewer and then scroll down the shorter list looking for recent dates, but when the comment is just "Okay", I then need to re-enable my own comments to see what was okayed. I also note that I can't search the 'Review' view by date. Regards, Tony Graham. -- Senior Architect XML Division Antenna House, Inc. ---- Skerries, Ireland tgraham(a)antenna.co.jp

interrupting and restarting an external tool script
by Tara Athan 05 Mar '15

05 Mar '15

I use bash scripts to run validation tests and build artifacts (I have an external tool called "build" that simply starts the bash script that has focus in the editor). I have noticed that if I start a script when another is running, there will be a failure of the first script, but then I am unable to successfully start any other script. It will return with error code 0, but not actually do anything. Is there a clean way to kill a script that is started in this fashion? Thanks, Tara

How to Search on Characters by Character Code?
by Eliot Kimber 26 Feb '15

26 Feb '15

Occasionally I need to search for specific Unicode characters, often characters that are not visible (for example, I just had an issue with character \u009D, (a control character that would normally never occur in a real XML document). I realized that I don't know how or if there's a direct way to search using character code. I worked around it by putting  in an XML file, switching to Author mode, then copying the character and using that for search, but surely there's an easier way?
