Catalog Resolution for DITA conref
by Paul Ryan 07 Oct '08

07 Oct '08

All, I'm trying to get a catalog to resolve a uriSuffix for a conref in a DITA document but am getting an unexpected result. My catalog is setup like the following: <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE catalog PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD Entity Resolution XML Catalog V1.1//EN" "http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/entity/release/1.1/catalog.dtd"> <catalog xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:entity:xmlns:xml:catalog"> <uriSuffix uriSuffix="concepts/CopyrightHolder.xml" uri="src/main/documents/concepts/CopyrightHolder.xml"/> </catalog> It is set so that the catalog sits parallel to src. While watching the resolver I'm getting the following message: SystemID: null Description: Public: null System: file:/C:/workspaces/SkyManager2.0Clean/subversion.infotrustgroup.com/docume… = null It concerns me that it is getting null because with other resolver lookups when it doesn't find it, it at least shows an intelligent URI to replace with. Any help you can give me on getting this to work would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, -- Paul Ryan Software Architect Product Engineering InfoTrust Group, Inc.

Wildcards in validation scenario associations?
by Jan Nylund 06 Oct '08

06 Oct '08

Hello! I would like to use wildcards to associate all xsl files in a certain folder to be validated starting form another xsl file. (the files are only used as imported from that certain place) Looking on how the project file works, if I associate it manually and save the project file, I get an added "<String xml:space="preserve">validation.scenario.associations</String>" with the actual file path added. If I simply modify the file path to contain for example "*.xsl" it doesn't automatically associate them, so it seems this solution did not work. Am I missing something or is this feature currently not available? Br, Jan -- Jan Nylund Senior System Designer Citec Information Oy Ab

executing XPath
by Syd Bauman 06 Oct '08

06 Oct '08

I still don't like using the XPath Builder because, as far as I have been able to ascertain (without, of course, reading the manual) there is no way in oXygen to press "Execute" without using the mouse. My operating system (Mac OS X 10.5.5) will permit me to select buttons using TAB, but this is not always reliable, although it seems better lately.

Scenario editor: doc param and meta-stylesheet scenario
by Florent Georges 03 Oct '08

03 Oct '08

Hi I have the following stylesheet parameter in one of my stylesheets (note its type): <xsl:param name="initial" as="document-node()"/> I don't find how I can set its value in the scenario editor. Is it possible or do I have to create a driver stylesheet getting a filename and parsing it to set this parameter? (really, I'd like to avoid that) As a slide question, this stylesheet is actually a generated stylesheet. But I didn't find a way in the scenario editor to support meta-stylesheet (a double transformation that first generates the stylesheet using the meta-stylesheet, then transform a document using this generated stylesheet.) For now I have each time to launch two scenarios one right after the other. But maybe I just didn't find the right way to achieve that? Best regards, --drkm, looking forward to XProc as a scenario language ;-)

XPath over sets of files
by Wendell Piez 01 Oct '08

01 Oct '08

Hi, I know about the Find/Replace in Files option on the context menu in the Project View. Run a string (or regular expression) search through a set of files collected in a folder in your project. Cool. How about an XPath option that would work the same way? Currently I usually write myself a little Schematron to locate particular nodes, which isn't a big deal. But it would be nice not to have to when the search can be expressed simply in a one-line XPath.

oXygen Author: Restrict from creating non-valid content?
by Jan Nylund 29 Sep '08

29 Sep '08

Hello! Is it possible to restrict the Author view in oxygen from creating non- valid content? Meaning, it would only allow insertion of the elements shown in the drop down list, etc to avoid writers not familiar with the DTD to still provide content without errors? (Yes, I know it warns for errors, but restricting use is better than warning when something has already gone wrong) Br, Jan -- Jan Nylund Senior System Designer Citec Information Oy Ab

Upgrading Saxon, and custom processor thoughts
by Florent Georges 29 Sep '08

29 Sep '08

Hi The Saxon version used in "XML Editor 9.3, build 2008081313" is still 9.0.0.6. I tried to add the latest 9.1.0.2 but there is no support for parameters for custom processors. Did I miss anything? Here is what I would have thought to be able to do: when asking oXygen to add a processor, beside to be able to give it the command line, it should be possible to say "this processor is of well-known kind 'Saxon B'". Because oXygen already knowns how to support Saxon B, the user only need to give the directory where he put the JARs (and the license for the equivalent support for Saxon SA.) And this mechanism could be used for other kind of processor as well (libxslt, MarkLogic, eXist...) Did I miss something that looks like that? Or at least that allows me either to use parameters with custom processors or to update the Saxon version used? Best regards, --drkm

Mac: oXygen 9.2 + Java SE6 = key up/down problems
by Jan Nylund 26 Sep '08

26 Sep '08

Hello. I'm running oXygen 9.2 on Mac OS X Leopard and recently updated to use Java SE 6 to get spaces working properly. However, I got another strange error that appears to be related to oXygen (but it might still be java.. can't tell). If I run oXygen with Java 6, the up and down keys will not move the cursor, but instead move the scrollbar. The arrows left / right works as supposed, and selecting text with shift + up/down also works as normal. I do not get this behavior in other Java applications so I suspect it to be oXygen related. The same behaviour has been reproduced on three different machines all running the latest version of OS X / oXygen. Br, Jan -- Jan Nylund System Designer Citec Information Oy Ab

adding several tags around a highlighted item
by Christian Wittern 13 Sep '08

13 Sep '08

Hi there, I was wondering, how other oXygen users are solving the following problem: While adding notes to a text, I would like to mark the word(s) that are to serve as anchors for the note and then the note itself, using something like <choice> <seg>Word</seg> <note>The word Word here has a special meaning... </note> </choice> Ideally, I would just highlight the 'Word', press some magic key that adds the <choice> and <seg> around 'Word' and then an empty <note> element after words and leaves the cursor within this new <note> element so that I can write the note. Is this possible in oXygen 9.3? If not, I would like to suggest to add something like this for future products, maybe as an extension of the template system? Any help appreciated, Christian -- Christian Wittern Institute for Research in Humanities, Kyoto University 47 Higashiogura-cho, Kitashirakawa, Sakyo-ku, Kyoto 606-8265, JAPAN
