Why is "Go to definition" so slow?
by Roger L Costello 12 Feb '21

12 Feb '21

Hi Folks, In XML Schema documents I can select a type, right-mouse-click, select "Go to definition", and then Oxygen will take me to the type definition. This is a great feature. However, in recent versions of Oxygen, it has gotten really slow. For example, I have a schema file that is 604 lines (i.e., a small schema). I selected a type, right-mouse-clicked, and selected "Go to definition". It took 20 seconds for Oxygen to find the type. Why does it take so long? I remember in previous editions of Oxygen it would take less than 2 seconds. /Roger

We have to search and replace high-bit characters sometimes.

How to get the location of "invalid UTF-8 characters"?
by Roger L Costello 01 Feb '21

01 Feb '21

Hi Folks, I have a large XHTML file. Apparently, somewhere in the file is an invalid Unicode character because when I drag-and-drop the file into Oxygen I get the error message: Cannot open the specified file: Got a character encoding exception. File encoding (UTF-8) does not support all characters from the current file. The problem is this: Where is the invalid UTF-8 character? Is there a way to get Oxygen to tell me where -- what character position -- it detected the invalid Unicode character? /Roger

[Ann] Webinar: Working with DITA in Oxygen - Advanced Profiling and Reuse Strategies (3 February)
by Alin Belu 29 Jan '21

29 Jan '21

Hello, If becoming advanced in profiling and reusing DITA content is one of this year’s resolutions, then you're in luck! Next Wednesday (February 3), make time for the third installment of the “Working with DITA in Oxygen” webinar series. In this live event titled “Advanced Profiling and Reuse Strategies”, Sorin Carbunaru (software developer at Syncro Soft) returns to help you achieve mastery in more advanced DITA concepts, such as: * Conref ranges – easily create content references to ranges of adjacent (sibling) elements. * Conref push - an alternate way of creating content references by injecting element values from the source element into a topic where it is to be re-used. * Subject scheme maps - create custom controlled values and manage metadata attribute values for an organization or a project without having to write a DITA specialization. * Profiling attribute groups - used to support situations where an attribute applies to multiple specialized subcategories. * Key scopes - specify different sets of key definitions for different map branches. * Branch filtering - set filtering conditions for specific branches of a map. This is a free event and you can register at http://www.oxygenxml.com/evs2021-3.html Make sure to check the full list of our upcoming events: https://www.oxygenxml.com/events_programme.html Best regards, Alin -- Alin Belu Oxygen XML Editor

Hi group, I see that the images in the DITA Reusable Components are arranged in alphabetical order. I guess there is no way to change this order, for example to see the most recent files first? Kind regards Yves

Hi Masamitsu, I'm afraid I do not have a good idea about how to do this.

[Ann] Oxygen Git Client add-on v2.4 has been released!
by Alin Belu 11 Jan '21

11 Jan '21

Hello, We are excited to announce the release of Oxygen Git Client add-on version 2.4! One of the most important features found in the newest version of the add-on is the addition of the "Abort merge" action for when conflicts result after a Pull (merge) operation. This allows you to abort the current conflict resolution process. Other improvements added in version 2.4 of the Oxygen Git Client add-on that expand its functionality even further include: * The addition of a quick find filter to the Git History view. * A new set of options in the Git Client preferences page that can be used to decide whether to always switch to a newly detected working copy from a project, to never switch, or to always ask. * The "Preferences" action was added in the Settings menu that acts as a shortcut to the Git Client preferences page. * An issue was fixed where pushing to a remote branch with a different name than the one of the local branches did not work. * Numerous other bug fixes were integrated, along with UI improvements, and speed improvements. * The JGit component included in the Git Client was updated to version 5.10.0. Also, make sure to check the README page for the Git Client add-on on GitHub: https://github.com/oxygenxml/oxygen-git-plugin/blob/master/README.md We hope that you will enjoy using the latest release of the Oxygen Git Client add-on as much as we enjoyed developing it!

Hi, any advice about specifying the information type for the batch converter? I installed the add-on from https://github.com/oxygenxml/oxygen-resources-converter I have a bunch of HTML files that I want to convert to task topics.

[Ann] Webinar: Automate XML processing with Oxygen XML Scripting
by Alin Belu 27 Nov '20

27 Nov '20

Hello, Next Wednesday, on December 2, our weekly live event series returns in full force with the “Automate XML processing with Oxygen XML Scripting” webinar! As you might know, continuous integration (CI) can be efficiently used to run automated scripts to validate changes as soon as they are saved to a remote repository. To make things easier for you, Alex Jitianu, DITA evangelist and development lead at Syncro Soft, will introduce you to Oxygen XML Scripting, a bundle of command line tools that can be executed inside these continuous integration and deployment pipelines. This way, you can make sure that your project is valid and ready to be deployed at any time! During this event, we will go over topics, such as: * DITA validation and checking for completeness - a tool that checks DITA maps and topics to see if they are valid and if all of the relationships between them are working. * Translation Package Builder - a tool for detecting changes, sending them to translation, and applying the translated files. * Examples on how to integrate these command line tools into integration servers, like Github Actions or Netlify. This is a free event and you can register at http://www.oxygenxml.com/evs2020-17.html Make sure to check the full list of our upcoming Events: https://www.oxygenxml.com/events_programme.html Best regards, Alin -- Alin Belu Oxygen XML Editor
