Xspec support broken?
by Erik Zander 31 Aug '20

31 Aug '20

Hi, It was a while since I used xspec but I do remember it to just work out of the box. In my oxygen XML Developer 22.1, build 2020072902 I see the menus but not the wizard and threes no template for running the tests. Is something broken or is support dropped? Or should I unites xslt in any other way? Regards Erik Zander

Insert Image as Variable in Eclipse environment
by Oudkerk, Judith 31 Aug '20

31 Aug '20

Hi All, I'm using Oxygen XML (version in the Ixiasoft Eclipse CCMS environment. I'd like to insert an image as variable in a topic, but I can't get it to work. I know it's possible, because I used to do this in the Stand-alone Oxygen XML editor. I created a variables map and added this for the image variable: <keydef format="png" href="nlr1598608071706.image" keys="cap" scope="local"/> The output shows the href as text though: [cid:image003.jpg@01D67D55.704FD2E0] Am I doing something wrong, or is it not possible within the Eclipse environment? Version: Oxygen.3a (4.7.3a) Build id: M20180330-0640 PS. The image is .PNG, not .SVG. This was just a test-topic I had lying around. Thanks in advance for you input.

Experimental XSLT for transforming oXygen change markup in DocBook docs into DocBook
by Imsieke, Gerrit, le-tex 19 Aug '20

19 Aug '20

Apologies for cross-posting. Please think about whether the answer is most relevant to only one of both mailings lists before replying to both. I recently wanted to render a large book (DocBook 5.1) that was copy-edited in oXygen author mode and that contained the corresponding processing instructions, and I wanted to render it with the Ant-based FO scenario that displays changes. But for some reason that I could not really fathom, neither this FOP scenario nor the default PDF rendering scenario produced results, with different error messages. Increasing oXygen’s or Ant’s heap space to insane amounts didn’t improve the situation. Anyway, I didn’t need a PDF; HTML would be fine, too, so I decided to add an oXygen change markup renderer to Norm’s brand new xslTNG stylesheets, https://github.com/docbook/xslTNG There’s a pull request to xslTNG where I asked Norm to merge it into xslTNG (https://github.com/docbook/xslTNG/pull/67) But since it has been hardly tested on many documents, Norm is hesitant to merge it, and I’d like to collect some user feedback first. I’d like to ask you to test it on your DocBook files that have been enhanced with change markup in oXygen’s author mode. The patched renderer is at https://github.com/gimsieke/xslTNG/tree/oxy-markup. You probably need Gradle or something to build it yourself, but you can use the latest release (https://github.com/docbook/xslTNG/releases) and replace the changed files (https://github.com/docbook/xslTNG/pull/67/files) Or you can just run the stylesheet https://github.com/gimsieke/xslTNG/blob/oxy-markup/src/main/xslt/transforms… standalone, render the resulting DocBook to HTML and define the CSS classes .oxy_insert and .oxy_delete to naybe color:green and color:red, respectively. Please let me know whether it works in principle or whether there are bugs or missing features. Also whether there’s already another stylesheet somewhere in place that is supposed to render the oXygen change markup PIs. Gerrit

Word equations to oXygen Equation editor
by leipold＠comcast.net 16 Aug '20

16 Aug '20

Hello, I have an extremely large document to convert from Word to Oxygen DITA. One of the biggest problems is equations, and there are thousands of them. I found a way to export the equation to from word MathML and get this: <mml:math xmlns:mml=" <http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML> http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:m=" <http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/officeDocument/2006/math%22%3E%3Cmml:msub…> http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/offic ... <mml:mtext> </mml:mtext><mml:mo>=</mml:mo><mml:mtext> </mml:mtext><mml:msub><mml:mrow><mml:mi>C</mml:mi></mml:mrow><mml:mrow><mml:mi>d</mml:mi></mml:mrow></mml:msub><mml:mtext> </mml:mtext><mml:msub><mml:mrow><mml:mi>A</mml:mi></mml:mrow><mml:mrow><mml:mi>p</mml:mi><mml:mi>i</mml:mi><mml:mi>p</mml:mi><mml:mi>e</mml:mi></mml:mrow></mml:msub><mml:mtext> </mml:mtext><mml:msqrt><mml:mfrac><mml:mrow><mml:mn>2</mml:mn></mml:mrow><mml:mrow><mml:mo>(</mml:mo><mml:msub><mml:mrow><mml:mi>P</mml:mi></mml:mrow><mml:mrow><mml:mi>a</mml:mi></mml:mrow></mml:msub><mml:mtext> </mml:mtext><mml:mo>-</mml:mo><mml:mtext> </mml:mtext><mml:msub><mml:mrow><mml:mi>P</mml:mi></mml:mrow><mml:mrow><mml:mi>p</mml:mi><mml:mi>s</mml:mi></mml:mrow></mml:msub><mml:mo>)</mml:mo><mml:mtext> </mml:mtext><mml:msub><mml:mrow><mml:mi>v</mml:mi></mml:mrow><mml:mrow><mml:mi>w</mml:mi><mml:mo>,</mml:mo><mml:mi>a</mml:mi></mml:mrow></mml:msub></mml:mrow></mml:mfrac></mml:msqrt></mml:math> I insert that into the equation editor and get this: <p>MathML inline: <equation-inline> <mml:math xmlns:mml=" <http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML> http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:m=" <http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/officeDocument/2006/math> http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/offic ... /2006/math"> <mml:mi>W</mml:mi><mml:mtext> </mml:mtext><mml:mo>=</mml:mo><mml:mtext> </mml:mtext><mml:msub><mml:mrow><mml:mi>C</mml:mi></mml:mrow><mml:mrow><mml:mi>d</mml:mi></mml:mrow></mml:msub><mml:mtext> </mml:mtext><mml:msub><mml:mrow><mml:mi>A</mml:mi></mml:mrow><mml:mrow><mml:mi>p</mml:mi><mml:mi>i</mml:mi><mml:mi>p</mml:mi><mml:mi>e</mml:mi></mml:mrow></mml:msub><mml:mtext> </mml:mtext><mml:msqrt><mml:mfrac><mml:mrow><mml:mn>2</mml:mn><mml:mtext> </mml:mtext><mml:mfenced open="[" close="]" separators="|"><mml:mrow><mml:msub><mml:mrow><mml:mi>P</mml:mi></mml:mrow><mml:mrow><mml:mi>a</mml:mi></mml:mrow></mml:msub><mml:mtext> </mml:mtext><mml:mo>-</mml:mo><mml:mtext> </mml:mtext><mml:msub><mml:mrow><mml:mi>P</mml:mi></mml:mrow><mml:mrow><mml:mi>p</mml:mi><mml:mi>s</mml:mi></mml:mrow></mml:msub></mml:mrow></mml:mfenced></mml:mrow><mml:mrow><mml:msub><mml:mrow><mml:mi>v</mml:mi></mml:mrow><mml:mrow><mml:mi>w</mml:mi><mml:mo>,</mml:mo><mml:mi>a</mml:mi></mml:mrow></mml:msub></mml:mrow></mml:mfrac></mml:msqrt></mml:math> </equation-inline></p> It looks fine in Author, but has element errors that MMM:Ml must be declared. It will not transform using the DITA Map PDF - based on HTML & CSS scenario. I have gotten to the point where I just do not know how to fix this. I realize that the syntax isn't the same as: <m:math display='inline'> <m:semantics> <m:mrow> <m:msqrt> ... But with thousands of these, I need the quickest way possible to get these equations in a format that can transform. I thought I had it because it finally looked right in Author, but I need to know how to add the correct element type to get it to transform. Sorry if this topic has been addressed before. I didn't find it. Thanks, Debbi Debbi Leipold | Mobile (410) 905-7948

Hiding keyref text in xrefs (in Author mode)
by Yves Barbion 12 Aug '20

12 Aug '20

Hi group When I insert a xref to a DITA topic with a key, I see the following in Author mode: <p><xref>[keyref_text]My cross-reference display text</xref></p> The keyref_text makes it a bit difficult to read my cross-reference display text, so I would like to hide it when I'm working in Author mode. Is there a way to do this? Thanks Yves

Sort order of media objects in the DITA Reusable Components pane
by Yves Barbion 27 Jul '20

27 Jul '20

Hi Oxygen users Can I change the way in which the objects are sorted in the DITA Reusable Components pane? I see that they are now sorted alphabetically, based on their file names, but I'd like to have them sorted by date. I could then have my most recent images appear on top, which are usually the ones which I want to insert into my topics. Thanks Yves

Re: [oXygen-user] oXygen-user Digest, Vol 116, Issue 4
by David Birnbaum 09 Jun '20

09 Jun '20

Dear Sorin (via oxygen-user), I apologize for being unclear, but I have already generated SSH keys and cloned repos using SSH, and everything works correctly from the command line. The issue is that when I then try to access such a repo from inside <oXygen/>, using the <oXygen/> GitHub plugin, an authentication box opens and prompts me for a username and password, which it then rejects as invalid (although those are the correct userid and password for my GitHub account). I can interact with those repos on the command line; it is only within <oXygen/> that they do not seem to be accessible. Is there something specific that I need to do to make <oXygen/> aware of the SSH authentication that works correctly from the command line?

[Ann] Release of Git Client Add-On version 2.2.0
by Alin Belu 04 Jun '20

04 Jun '20

Hello, We are excited to announce the release for the newest version of the Oxygen Git Client Add-On version 2.2.0. This add-on contributes a built-in Git client directly into Oxygen in the form of a Git Staging view that includes various actions that perform common Git commands, such as push, pull, change branch, commit, and more. It also includes a built-in tool for comparing and merging changes, as well as other Git actions in the Project view and the main editing area. >From the beginning, the main purpose for this add-on was to increase the functionality of the Oxygen ecosystem by providing our users with a dependable Git staging option that is easy to access right from the editor. In version 2.2.0 of the Git Client Add-on, we expanded its functionality even further with improvements such as: *The possibility to amend the last commit. *The possibility to automatically push changes to the remote repository when committing. *The possibility to create a new branch starting from the selected commit in the History table, by using the "Create branch" contextual action. *The possibility to compare two revisions of the same file from the Git History view, by using the "Compare with each other" action in the contextual menu of the history table. *The possibility to reset the stored credentials, by using the "Reset credentials" action in the Settings menu from the main toolbar. *If you have a local branch that is not tracking a remote branch, the push button tooltip suggests that you push to create a remote branch with the same name as the local one. *Incoming and outgoing commits are marked in the history table with corresponding arrow characters. *Improved local repository detection when selecting a project. *Updated JGit to version 5.7.0 (which, among other things, fixes client-side hooks execution). *Fixed a bug where failing commits did not show any messages to the user. *Fixed other small bugs. Starting with version 22.1 of Oxygen XML Editor, you can access the Git Staging view by selecting it from the Window > Show View menu (installation will be required for the first-time use). For more information, see the details for the Git Client add-on on GitHub: https://github.com/oxygenxml/oxygen-git-plugin/blob/master/README.md Best regards, Alin Alin Belu Oxygen XML Editor

New Member asking about accessibility to blind users via a screen reader
by Daniel Creasy 22 May '20

22 May '20

Hello everyone. Some of you may not be aware of what a “screen reader” is or that blind developers can use onee to develop software. Most of you probably are. I’ve done a lot of work with XML, mostly using a text editor and have tried Oxygen XML in the past. I’m interested in learning about the current state of accessibility and would love to find some docs or articles about it. I’m considering purchasing a personal license but don’t want to invest that much money into something I can’t use fully. Any comments or references would be greatly appreciated.

Hi everyone, We are happy to announce that Oxygen XML Author/Editor version 22.1 was released! New features and improvements added in Oxygen XML Editor/Author/Developer version 22.1 include: *Improved productivity for DITA users with CTRL+click navigation on links and topic references, automatic key generation for new topics, faster new map creation, and making the DITA References view plugin discoverable with installation-on-first-use. *Using CSS to customize the PDF output is used more and more, and the CSS-based DITA to PDF output reflects this with many updates, including support for change bars and the possibility to bring the changed content into sticky annotation notes, support for using CSS to style embedded SVG, better handling of white space, hyphenation, and line wrapping, as well as improved error reporting to help you troubleshoot issues. *Copying content from the Author visual mode and pasting it into HTML or word processing documents will preserve similar HTML formatting whenever possible. *When working with documents, comparing files in the visual Author mode is a huge productivity boost and usability improvement, and while this was available in the standalone version, it was missing in the Eclipse plugin version. Not anymore! The visual diff and merge support can now also be used inside Eclipse. *The professional-grade JSON and HTML support was further improved, with a focus on the latter, extending the Schematron validation support to work on HTML documents, a new action allows you to make HTML as XML well-formed to enable further processing with XML tools, and you can format and indent specific HTML elements *Sometimes a new functionality is introduced through plugins to allow for a faster development and immediate availability. To make these plugins easier to discover and install, we implemented an install-on-first-use support. The user interface that triggers the plugin looks as if the plugin is installed, but when you try to use it, it will first trigger the plugin installation. This is the case for existing plugins such as the Git client, Batch converter, XSD to JSON Schema, and Oxygen Emmet Plugin, as well as for new plugins such as the Generate Java Classes from XSD or the DITA References View. *Other user interfaces and productivity improvements make the Results view dockable in any position for more flexible layouts, find/replace in files also presents matches in the visual Author mode, better search functionality will understand adjacent words on separate lines, you can hide almost everything, including the editor tabs for a presentation mode. Also, an external MathML editor can be configured, allowing you to easily edit MathML with tools such as Libre Office. *New APIs allow for finding the names of pseudo-classes for elements, customization of the tooltip text when editing in Author mode, using the Author API directly on content without opening the content in the editor, running validation scenarios from custom Author actions, and contributions of new code templates. *Many components were updated, including the DITA Open Toolkit, DITA Open Toolkit Plugin for DITA-to-Word, Everit, Saxon, TEI Schemas and Stylesheets, Xerces, focheck, Log4j, Rhino, and XSpec. For the complete list of features, see: https://www.oxygenxml.com/xml_editor/whats_new.html We hope you will enjoy Oxygen 22.1! As always, any feedback on it is welcomed. Best regards, Alin

Code templates Xml / Xsl
by Karl Stubsjoen 07 May '20

07 May '20

I commonly use the same code templates in Xml and Xsl documents. Beside duplicating and besides setting the association to All Editors is there a way to define a code template for Xml and Xsl editors? I rarely author html pages directly, but I suppose these html code snippets, specifically Twitter Bootstrap code snippets, should have the same consideration. Karl.. Karl Stubsjoen

Using http-client extension module in Oxygen
by Christian Wittern 30 Apr '20

30 Apr '20

Dear Oxygen users, I know this question has been asked before and answered (The most recent exchange I could find is here[1]). However, it seems things changed a bit since then, and I wonder what would be updated instruction to make it possible to make a POST request from a XSLT script running in oXygen. I found the most recent expath-http-client-java-http-client-1.2.4.zip here [2], but am at a loss at how to use it. All the best, Christian [1] https://www.oxygenxml.com/forum/post34427.html [2] https://codeload.github.com/expath/expath-http-client-java/zip/http-client-…
