Feature request: Improvement of Japanese search for WebHelp
by Naoki Hirai 19 Nov '13

19 Nov '13

Hi, I like Oxygen WebHelp very much and recommend it to Japanese users. The WebHelp is sophisticated online manual solution, but one issue has still remained for Japanese users. That is a Japanese search. For Japanese it's difficult to extract words from sentences. Because the words are not separated by spaces. Therefore, in general, a morphological analyzer is used to extract the words from the sentences. Recently, an open source Japanese morphological analyzer which is called "Kuromoji" has become popular. The Apache Solr has introduced Kuromoji as the morphological analyzer. So, my feature request is that Oxygen WebHelp plug-in will incorporate Kuromoji as the morphological analyzer. And add a parameter which selects a stemmer for generating a WebHelp output. I can help the development and the evaluation. Please have a thought. Best regards, Naoki

scripted creation of MarkLogic data sources?
by Jakob Fix 14 Nov '13

14 Nov '13

Hi, right now we're creating our MarkLogic data sources manually, using the UI. Is there a way to create them by modifying a configuration file, or an API to send setup requests to? We're having a quite a lot of these data sources, but creating them by hand gets cumbersome. And we really like the possibility to inspect the database's contents via WebDAV from within OxygenXML. cheers, Jakob.

Multiple but independent inline editors
by Felix Sasaki 12 Nov '13

12 Nov '13

Hi all, another newbie question I assume. I want to add a set of inline editors. With a dedicated CSS style and given <span its:translate="no">... an editor for editing the "translate" attribute, a combo box editor should be available for editing the attribute. The issue is that there are many of such attributes, e.g. <span its:translate="no" its:locNote="..." its:storageSize="..." its:term="..."> ... First I thought of creating a combobox for each of these. But CSS selectors don't allow you to match several rules at once. So if I have *[its|translate]:before { combobox def here } and later in the stylesheet *[its|term]:before { combobox def here } an element like above that contains both attributes will only show the combox for "its:term". I can write *[its|translate][its|term]:before { combobox def here } but this will show comboxes for all attributes even if they are not present. I tried a workaround: defining CSS rules for all potential combinations, that is: only translate, only term, both translate+term, ... but since there are a lot of attributes to consider, the CSS stylesheet looks really bad. Maybe there is a workaround that does not rely on CSS selectors? Thanks, Felix

Removing or adding two attributes at the same time
by Felix Sasaki 11 Nov '13

11 Nov '13

Hi all, For an oXygen framework (DocBook), I would like to exectue an operation that removes or adds two attributes at the same time after the user has clicked on a button. The use case is that in my DocBook customization these attributes need to appear at the same time. Adding or removing just one of them would make the file invalid, and having two buttons is not an option, because there are many such combined attributes, the GUI would get too full. The ChangeAttributeOperation at http://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/ug-oxygen/index.html#topics/dg-default-author-… didn't work for me since I cannot have two of these operations associated with one button. Looking at http://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/ug-oxygen/index.html#topics/the-action-dialog.… it seems not possible to trigger two operations via one action: "An action has one or mode operation modes. The evaluation of an XPath expression activates an operation mode. The first enabled operation mode is activated when you trigger the action." I also tried to evoke an XSLT transformation via XSLTOperation that removes the attributes. But although the "script" value IMO opinion points to the right location of the XSLT and that XSLT file is valid, I get an error from evoking the action, saying: "Couldn't exectute operation ro.sync.ecss.extensions.commons.operations.TransformOperation because ... cannot create Transformer: failed to compile stylesheet." Any ideas how to move forward? If the XSLTOperation is the way to go: is there an example in an existing framework that demonstrates how the operation is used? Thanks, Felix

Chapter Numbering feature request
by KAATMAN Matthew 11 Nov '13

11 Nov '13

One feature that would be nice would be an option to turn on the numbering for the chapters in the Dita maps manager. This would be especially useful for managing translated content since I generally can't read the chapter titles. Each time I have to count them from the top to find the one I am looking for. Bonus points if a second option to skip counting chapters marked as toc="no"!

Displaying empty elements (or not)
by Wendell Piez 07 Nov '13

07 Nov '13

Hi folks, oXygen supports the CSS3 selector :empty, so (for example) we can hide an element that has no content styled, in the Author View, for "preview", while showing it in an editing style. This is useful when, for example, editing documents whose schemas require elements in places where the user has no content for them. So if we have <sect><head/><p>Headless section</p></sect> we don't have to see anything where the empty 'head' element is, at least when oXygen Author is set to "No Tags". Unfortunately, however, since CSS isn't XPath, there's no way to suppress the 'sect' element, when we have <sect><head/></sect> (We can make the 'head' disappear but then we see a placeholder for the 'sect'.) I know the correct solution is not to deploy schemas that require elements that are not always used. But I wonder if anyone has a CSS workaround or an oXygen extension to suggest so that my oXygen XML Author preview can show something more like what the document will look like when it is formatted and the offending elements are dropped. Any ideas? Thanks, Wendell Wendell Piez | http://www.wendellpiez.com XML | XSLT | electronic publishing Eat Your Vegetables _____oo_________o_o___ooooo____ooooooo_^

Is there a way to select a map and apply an xml:lang across every file in that map to the main topic type tag? Thanks!

feature request for syncing filesystem with webdav
by Jakob Fix 01 Nov '13

01 Nov '13

Hi, we're using OxygenXML Enterprise for MarkLogic development, and it works really well (just wanted to say this). Here is a feature request of the "nice to have" category: Right now we're developing and running our Xquery modules from the filesystem. However, at some stage we want to run them from within a modules database. So we have to load them into the modules database probably using WebDAV or mlcp which is quite cumbersome. The temptation will be great to work directly in the modules database, via OxygenXML's WebDAV connectivity. If we did this we'd lose versioning via SVN as this requires the changes to be visible in the filesystem. If OxygenXML could watch a filesystem folder and sync it with a remote WebDAV resource (in the upload direction) whenever a change occurred, that would solve our conundrum. Until then we can of course use an external tool such as node.js + grunt.js (and its webdav-sync plugin [1]). While writing this, I'm wondering whether the "External Tools" in OxygenXML could provide a hook for grunt.js? Are there other ways of achieving this change-based synchronisation that we could use instead? thanks, Jakob. [1] https://npmjs.org/package/webdav-sync
