Media Query for Editor-Specific Style Sheets?
by Eliot Kimber 07 May '18

07 May '18

I'm working with docs that have an XML style sheet PI where the style sheet referenced is a master style sheet that supports editing, browsing, and print. I'm trying to use media queries on @import rules to not import the editor and browser-specific style sheets when the media target is print (e.g., formatting with Antenna House's CSS feature). What media query should I use to specific include a module for use in Oxygen? I didn't find anything related to media query in the online user guide. Cheers, E. -- Eliot Kimber http://contrext.com

Hi group I've got DITA topics with quite a lot of child elements in the prolog. Is there a way to open the topics with only the prolog element collapsed (to save some screen real estate)? Thanks Yves

German hyphenation
by Bernhard Kleine 07 May '18

07 May '18

Hi, updating from Oxygen 19.1 to Oxygen 20 I noticed that the PDF transformed now include hyphenation. This works fairly well. Some words, however, are wrongly hyphenated. Is there a possibiliy to add these to a list of patterns which will be enforced for the hyphenation. I would be eager to contribute to such a list.

Using entities
by Bernhard Kleine 30 Apr '18

30 Apr '18

Hi, I use the following entities for Vitamin D3 <!ENTITY TS " "> <!ENTITY threesub "₃"> <!ENTITY Ndash "–" > <!ENTITY Vitdrei "Vitamin&TS;D&threesub;"> <!ENTITY OHVitdrei "25&nbhyph;OH-Vitamin &TS;D&threesub;"> <!ENTITY diOHVitdrei "1,25&Ndash;(OH)₂-Vitamin&TS; D&threesub;"> The problematic entity is obviously threesub. In the pdf (transformed by oxygen 19.1) there is with diOHVitdrei the subscript-3 is correct but with Vitdrei it is not. Can you please explain this to me? It is very strange. An example: all the vitamin entries are done with entities. As you can see for yourself Vitamin D# is errorneous.

When oXygen project files are commited in SCM, and many developers create various scenarios, merging xpr file can be a nightmare. Editions Lefebvre-Sarrut has released a maven plugin that keep your project file entries sorted, and simplifies the merge - you still have to resolve conflicts, but that's much easier. https://github.com/ELSGestion/oxygen-pjt-beautifier-maven-plugin Best, Christophe

Hi, (Oxygen 19.1) This organisation raises errors for the <para> entries after <sect3>. The error is : element "para" not allowed here; expected the element end-tag or element "bibliography", "glossary", "index", "sect3", "simplesect", "toc" or "xi:include" The one before sect3 is not touched, but those after.

<Variables> in DITA documentation
by Franz-Josef Knelangen 25 Apr '18

25 Apr '18

Hi there, In our documentation we use something like <installation folder> or <project folder> and put these into file paths, f. e. <project folder>\pipe\sewer.s3db If I surround this with <filepath> markup, oXygen changes the 1st angle bracket of “<project folder>” to “<project folder>” to save the structure. In Author mode, you don’t realize this, only when trying to Search&Replace <installation folder> with <program folder> you don’t find all occurences and wonder why. I see that this has to be changed by oXygen. Is there some advice / best practice to deal with this kind of source text? At the moment, I can only think of putting this “variable” in a <varname> element inside <filepath> without writing the angle brackets and defining a CSS rule for /filepath/varname to surround it with brackets in the output. Any other ideas? TIA and Greetings from Germany, Franz-Josef ________________________________ AKG Software Consulting GmbH Franz-Josef Knelangen Uhlandstraße 12 79423 Heitersheim Germany Tel.: +49 (0)7634 5612-611 Fax: +49 (0)7634 5612-300 E-Mail: fjk(a)akgsoftware.de Internet: www.akgsoftware.de<http://www.akgsoftware.de> Geschäftsführer: Dipl.-Ing.

[ANN] oxex - An oXygen project file to simplify common tasks in eXist app development
by Joe Wicentowski 21 Apr '18

21 Apr '18

Hi all, For anyone who commonly uses oXygen to work on code or data that you keep on the filesystem and upload to eXist, I posted an oXygen project file with some associated files to GitHub; once you open the project file, your External Tools menu will be populated with some tools that aid in tasks like uploading from the filesystem to the database, deploying an app to the database, etc. It assumes some conventions that are common in the eXist community for app development, such as assuming that files are uploaded to a sub-collection of /db/apps, using ant for packaging and deployment of .xar packages, etc. I adapted this from a project that I developed for my colleagues at work to speed some common tasks. Occasionally when I've shown this system to others they asked if I could release it for more general use. This is that effort. I'd welcome feedback and suggestions here or in the issue tracker. Joe

DITA & Author 17.1: Displaying topic titles in Editor view
by Kristen James Eberlein 12 Apr '18

12 Apr '18

My client is using oXygen XML Author 17.1 and the SDL Authoring Bridge. While topic titles are displayed when a DITA map is open in the DITA Maps Manager view, they are not displayed in the Editor view. Is there a configuration option to enable this? I seem to remember one, but it might be in later versions of oXygen. Many thanks. -- Best, Kris Kristen James Eberlein Chair, OASIS DITA Technical Committee Principal consultant, Eberlein Consulting www.eberleinconsulting.com +1 919 622-1501; kriseberlein (skype)

Update element on save?
by David Levy 12 Apr '18

12 Apr '18

The current discussion "When a <fig> is inserted, it should contain a <title> element" prompts me to ask what I'm sure is a trivial question. I am using Oxygen to edit XML in text mode. I would like an XML element <dateUpdated> to be updated automatically on save. I am aware of the of the ${date(pattern)} editor variable, but don't know how to trigger an action on the save event or indeed what type of code can be run once the event is detected. The online example <https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/versions/20.0/ug-editorEclipse/topics/api_faq…> seemed to be in a DITA context and require the Plugins SDK, neither of which I'm familiar with. With thanks, David Levy
