Installing Oxygen on a new computer
by Frank Dissinger 30 Sep '24

30 Sep '24

Hi support, hi group, I have to migrate all my programs to a new computer with Windows 11. What is the quickest way to set up Oxygen in the same way as it was on my old computer? I know I can import/export some features such as window layouts and themes and I know where I have saved my custom frameworks to. But what about document type associations, profiling/condition settings for author mode and all the other preferences? Is there a directory tree where all this is stored and which I could just copy over the existing files?

[ANN] Oxygen AI Positron Assistant 3.0 comes with RAG integration and new AI-powered actions!
by Alin Belu 06 Sep '24

06 Sep '24

Hi everyone, We are proud to announce the release of *version 3.0* for *Oxygen AI Positron Assistant*, the powerful tool that helps increase your productivity by providing support for using AI-generated content within Oxygen tools - Oxygen XML Editor/Author/Developer, Oxygen XML Web Author, and Oxygen Content Fusion. Version 3.0 continues to increase the efficiency of using the plugin as certain actions now leverage the *Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)* process to obtain context from your current project, ensuring that the AI responses are not only more meaningful but also tailored for your particular projects. The new *AI Positron Assistant drop-down widget* offers a very quick and convenient way of accessing useful AI actions by displaying a floating contextual menu directly within the editing area. For example, it contains a useful new action named /Rewrite Content/ that opens a floating input box where you can provide the AI with instructions on how to process the selected content. Interface improvements include the possibility for you to customize your own AI actions to display as Quick Assist fixes in the editor. This feature presents a convenient pop-up menu on the left vertical navigation stripe with commonly used fixes, allowing for customization to align with individual preferences. Additionally, it is now possible to choose the OpenAI model used in chat sessions and actions right from the AI Positron Assistant view. This functionality provides a very quick and easy way to experiment with the different available models. A variety of new AI actions that are specific to working with DITA XML documents have been implemented, including a /Proofread/ action that helps identify potential issues in your content regarding logical consistency, grammar, spelling, readability, and comprehension. Furthermore, the new /Resolve Comments/ action enables the AI to change content based on suggestions found within comments and then also removes those comments to save time in the cleanup process. Other newly implemented actions include the /Improve Structure/ action that instructs the AI to enhance DITA XML documents by adding additional structure or inline elements, and the /Add Structured Content/ action continues the content from a document with additional structured content generated based upon similar content from the current project, which gives the AI more context for formulating the new XML structure. This release also comes with several additions for the Oxygen XML Web Author version of the plugin, including some of the above mentioned AI-powered actions (e.g. /Proofread/, /Resolve Comments/, and /Improve Structure/), alongside various other user experience enhancements. For more information, see: https://www.oxygenxml.com/ai_positron_assistant.html As always, thank you for your continued support and don't forget that feedback is highly appreciated!

[ANN] Oxygen Content Fusion 7.0 introduces a personal authoring workspace and support for Continuous Deployment
by Alin Belu 10 Jul '24

10 Jul '24

Hello everyone, We are proud to announce the release of *Oxygen Content Fusion 7.0*, the web-based collaboration platform for content creation! *Oxygen Content Fusion* version *7.0* enhances the project support by introducing a *personal authoring workspace* where you can make changes across multiple files and once you are happy with the results, you can commit them directly to the repository to share them with your team. The dedicated /Changes/ side-view enables you to preview and adjust changes before committing. An XML-aware conflict resolution tool helps you pull changes from the repository, detects conflicts, suggests automated solutions, and also allows merging content manually for more complex scenarios. Along with the powerful editing features for XML documents, the built-in Web Author allows you to edit Markdown files inside the authoring workspace providing syntax preview and toolbar actions to insert common structures. The workspace feature includes a /Publications/ side-view for easy browsing of a publication's DITA map. Users can open the map in a specialized DITA map editor to modify the structure using toolbar or contextual menu actions. The intuitive interface supports drag and drop, copy/paste, and various other actions for organizing topics. The editor also supports advanced DITA features such as profiling attributes, key definitions, and map references. Continuous Deployment for the output is now possible as version 7.0 adds *support for publishing connectors* to enable uploading output to various platforms such as Amazon S3, Netlify, or servers with SFTP protocol. The output can be configured to include an "Edit Online" link in each topic that sends authors to their personal workspace where they can make changes to the source of that topic. When used in conjunction with automated builds, these changes will be live as soon as the build finishes. For more information about the new release, please see: https://www.oxygenxml.com/content_fusion/whats_new.html You may also try these new features on our public demo deployment: https://fusion.oxygenxml.com/projects We hope you will enjoy our latest release! As always, thank you for your support and don't forget that feedback is welcome! Best regards, Alin -- Alin Belu Oxygen XML Editor

Hi Scott, I'll add an internal issue to improve the DocumentTypeInformation API.

Hi Scott, So the "script" parameter should be a piece of Javascript content. For example you can pass as value of the "script" parameter this entire Javascript code here: https://github.com/oxygenxml/javascript-sample-operations/blob/master/copy-… To the value passed using "script" we add the entire Javascript from the "commons.js". So I guess in your case you have placed the entire content in the "commons.js" and passed an empty "script" parameter, which should also work as long as you have a "doOperation()" function. About accessing the DocumentTypeInfo API, your script has global access to an object named "authorAccess" which maps to this Java class: https://www.oxygenxml.com/InstData/Editor/SDK/javadoc/ro/sync/ecss/extensio… So something like this in the JS code: authorAccess.getEditorAccess().getDocumentTypeInformation() should give you access to this Java class: https://www.oxygenxml.com/InstData/Editor/SDK/javadoc/ro/sync/exml/workspac… That similar "ro.sync.ecss.extensions.api.webapp.doctype.DocumentTypeInfo" API that you wanted access to is specific for our web author in browser editor tool. Regards, Radu Radu Coravu Oxygen XML Editor On 6/13/24 19:48, Scott Prentice wrote: > > Thanks, Radu. > > I have a couple questions. > > It's not clear to me how the "script" parameter works with the > JSOperation class.

Hi Scott, Right. We do not have a special Author operation to show a message to the end user.

Custom action to generate simple dialog?
by Scott Prentice 13 Jun '24

13 Jun '24

Hi, Is there a built-in method for creating an action (to call from a toolbar or menu) that displays a simple dialog that contains informational text? I'd like to have an "About" dialog that's associated with a framework. I assume I can do this by creating a custom class, but wanted to see if there was an OOB option for this. Thanks! Scott

[ANN] Oxygen AI Positron Assistant 2.1 introduces GPT-4o to its list of models, along with new AI actions!
by Alin Belu 12 Jun '24

12 Jun '24

Hi everyone, We are proud to announce the release of *version 2.1* for *Oxygen AI Positron Assistant*, a powerful tool that helps users increase their productivity by providing support for using AI-generated content within Oxygen tools - Oxygen XML Editor/Author/Developer, Oxygen XML Web Author, and Oxygen Content Fusion. Version 2.1 expands upon the enhancements of the previous version by adding the advanced multi-modal *GPT-4o* to the list of models to choose from. This model is quicker and more cost-effective compared to the GPT-4 Turbo model. For the Enterprise version of Oxygen AI Positron Assistant, the Microsoft Azure OpenAI Service connector now supports *authentication using Microsoft Entra ID*, providing users with improved security and flexibility. Processing content within the editor has gotten even more easier as any content selected in the main editor area is automatically passed as context for the conversation when directly initiating a new chat with the AI. *New AI actions* have been introduced in this version, allowing users to generate, document, or explain specific code snippets, initiate a conversation with the AI regarding certain code snippets, and create alternate text for images. Version 2.1 also introduces three *AI-powered XML refactoring actions* that enable users working with DITA XML topics to generate alternate text for images, generate missing short descriptions, and shorten existing short descriptions. Furthermore, Oxygen XML Web Author users who integrate the /Oxygen AI Positron Assistant Enterprise for Web Author/ plugin now have the ability to filter the list of AI actions. For more information, see: https://www.oxygenxml.com/ai_positron_assistant.html As always, thank you for your support and don't forget that feedback is welcome!

Re: [oXygen-user] [OXYGEN-14931] How to tell Oxygen to abort loading a large XML file?
by Oxygen XML Editor Support (Radu Coravu) 06 May '24

Hi Roger, When you open such a large file in Oxygen, it should allow you to open in huge file editing mode, so maybe the next time you can pick this option: https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/versions/26.1/ug-editor/topics/huge-file-edit… Or you can try increasing Oxygen's maximum allowed memory: https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/versions/26.1/ug-editor/topics/increase-memor… Right now Oxygen is probably in an out of memory state, so you should probably kill it. Oxygen saves auto recovery info for all opened files once every 5 minutes by default, so if you re-open Oxygen and then re-open that other XML file which was not saved, Oxygen should prompt you to use the auto recovery info for it.

How to tell Oxygen to abort loading a large XML file?
by Roger L Costello 06 May '24

06 May '24

Hi Folks, I dragged and dropped a large (167MB) file into Oxygen. I have another memory-intensive operation (which I can't stop) going on at the same time, so Oxygen is taking a long time to load the XML file. It's been 15 minutes thus far and the file is still not loaded. I would like to tell Oxygen that I've changed my mind, don't load it. But Oxygen is completely unresponsive. Is there any way, aside from killing the task (and losing all the changes I made but weren't saved), to get Oxygen to abort loading the file? /Roger

[ANN] Oxygen AI Positron Assistant 2.0 adds Vision support and new productivity actions!
by Alin Belu 23 Apr '24

23 Apr '24

Hi everyone, We are proud to announce *version 2.0* of *Oxygen AI Positron Assistant*, the powerful tool that helps users increase their productivity by providing support for using AI-generated content within the Oxygen tools - Oxygen XML Editor/Author/Developer, Oxygen XML Web Author, and Oxygen Content Fusion! Version 2.0 adds support for *Vision* models, allowing the AI to read and interpret images that can be easily added by users to the prompts entered in the Chat window, thus supporting more use cases. A new action called *Generate Documentation Draft* is available that can be used to create a draft DITA topic. This feature provides users with control over the draft generation process, allowing them to specify the context for the new topic, instructions, and images. Furthermore, this version also introduces an action that enables users to get a proposal for updating a DITA topic after they update the images referenced in that topic, by having the AI analyze the new images and propose content changes. Two new variables that can be applied on content with tracked changes were introduced and they can be used to write prompts, enabling users to provide the AI with both the original and modified text and ask the AI engine to analyze the change. Additionally, users now have the ability to filter the list of AI actions and some of the most frequently used actions (e.g. Correct Grammar, Improve Readability, Use Active Voice) are now available as Quick Assist fixes. The Oxygen XML Enterprise edition license for Oxygen XML Editor, Author, and Developer products now includes access to the Oxygen AI Positron Assistant Enterprise add-on at no extra cost (provided their version is 26.0 or later). Moreover, the Enterprise version of the add-on allows users to connect directly to *Anthropic Claude* (in addition to the existing options for OpenAI and Microsoft Azure OpenAI Service). Additionally, from this release forward, Oxygen XML Web Author users also have access to the new Oxygen AI Positron Assistant Enterprise plugin for Web Author. For more information, see: https://www.oxygenxml.com/ai_positron_assistant.html As always, thank you for your support and don't forget that feedback is welcome! Best regards, Alin -- Alin Belu Oxygen XML Editor

Add full stop to list item in Reusable content
by Oudkerk, Judith 22 Apr '24

22 Apr '24

Hi All, I was wondering if there’s a way to add a full stop to the final list item of reusable content. We have a list of items that are reusable, but each manual may use different list items. Therefore, the final list item may differ per manual. Since our Style guide dictates that only the final list item should have a full stop, it’s quite difficult to manage this list. Is there a way to add a full stop to the end of a list item outside the reusable content? I tried putting the list items in both <p> and <lines> elements, but then the full stop is placed on a new line in the output PDF: XML: PDF: [cid:image001.png@01DA949C.8EB2EA30] [cid:image003.png@01DA949C.C9088A00] Do you have any other ideas or suggestions?
