Syncro SVN Suggestion: Show/Hide Unversioned Items
by infotexture 12 Sep '08

12 Sep '08

Hi, How about adding an option to the Working Copy View to toggle the display of unversioned items, much like those that already exist for Ignored and Deleted items? I realize that unversioned files can be excluded by setting svn:ignore properties, but for projects with lots of individual types in different locations, it can be tedious to set up ignores for each of the various file(type)s & subfolders. This would make it much easier to focus on files under version control. Roger P.S. Will Syncro SVN 4.0 be included in oXygen 9.4, or when can we expect it?

Bidi limit
by Firmicus 12 Sep '08

To save memory, Oxygen disables the bidirectional functionality whenever a document reaches a certain size. Is it possible to manually turn it on, or to increase the upper limit? That would make me very happy! Thanks, François Charette

Unable to print an element's value
by Bradley, Peter 10 Sep '08

10 Sep '08

Hi, I've encountered some behaviour that I can't understand in a transformation that I'm currently engaged on. The transformations are all pretty simple and follow the same pattern, but with just a few of them I'm getting odd results where the element text is not being output. For example, in one case I have the following xsl: ... ...  <xsl:for-each select="Instance"> <Instance> <NUMHUS> <xsl:value-of select="NUMHUS/text()"/> </NUMHUS> <REDUCEDI> <xsl:attribute name="codeListAgencyName"> <xsl:text>HESA</xsl:text> </xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="codeListName"> <xsl:text>REDUCEDI</xsl:text> </xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="languageID"> <xsl:text>en</xsl:text> </xsl:attribute> <xsl:value-of select="REDUCEDI/text()"/> </REDUCEDI> <COURSEID> <xsl:value-of select="COURSEID/text()"/> </COURSEID> ... The source document has the following: <Instance> <NUMHUS>000001075369710892 </NUMHUS> <personal_id>02002538</personal_id> <REDUCEDI>00</REDUCEDI> ... <COURSEID>62105201 </COURSEID> ... (Note that <personal_id> is not transferred to the output document) The destination document gives: <Instance> <NUMHUS>000001070027710892 </NUMHUS> <REDUCEDI codeListAgencyName="HESA" codeListName="REDUCEDI" languageID="en"/> <COURSEID>53705101 </COURSEID> ... My problem is the <REDUCEDI> element. I don't understand why it hasn't taken the text '00' into the destination document as I was expecting. I've got what I take to be the same problem elsewhere, so I'm hoping that solving it here will give the solution elsewhere as well. Thanks in advance Peter

Xpath and Saxon return tabs as text
by Philipp Steinkrüger 09 Sep '08

09 Sep '08

Dear Oxygen-Users, i am having a problem with an indented XML File. The File looks like this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <TEI xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns="http://www.i-d-e.de/ns/1.0 "> <teiHeader> <fileDesc> <titleStmt> <title>MS Einsiedeln</title> </titleStmt> <publicationStmt> <p>publicationsStmt empty</p> </publicationStmt><sourceDesc> <p>sourceDesc empty</p> </sourceDesc></fileDesc> </teiHeader> <text> <body> <div> <div> <div> <p><c>D</c>ie gotheit iſt beſloſſen<lb/>in dem vater n<ex>atur</ex>elich dar<lb/>vmbe iſt er alvermvgende<lb/ >vnd enpfat niht von ite<lb />des<gap reason=""/> er ſelber nit en iſt an<lb/>ſiner go<unclear >tl</unclear>icher macht wan<lb/>ers weſelich i<ex>n</ex> ime vnd an<lb/>ime ſelben beſloſſen hat<space unit="letters" quantity="1" /></p> </div> </div> </div> </body> </text> </TEI> Now, using the following XPath 2.0 expression: //text(), the tabs are returned as text-nodes, for example the first tab before the tag <teiHeader>. In fact, my DTD does not allow #PCDATA inside <TEI>, but the document is validated without any problems. To me this seems kind of schizophrenic, or am I mistaken? Btw: the same file in XMLSpy with its build-in xslt engine as well as MS XML parser with the same xPath expression does not return the tabs as text-nodes. Any ideas?

CSS editor could persist parameter drop-down
by Hedley Finger 03 Sep '08

03 Sep '08

The CSS editor when you type the : (colon) at the end of a property name currently drops down a list of possible keywords or parameters. If you like neat code like me, as soon as you insert a space after the colon, the drop-down disappears. I hate cramped code, like ... .aClass { display:inline } ... and prefer it like this: .aClass { display: inline } Could the drop-down persist until either (a) you select an option from the list, (b) start typing a non-whitespace character, e.g. beginning a value, or (c) until you type the ; (semi-colon) or } (right brace) that ends the line?

CSS editor frustrating, needs improvements
by Hedley Finger 03 Sep '08

03 Sep '08

I am incorporating copyright class definitions for CSS-only cascading menus. It would be nice to set it off the copyrighted block with extra empty lines above and below, but <oXygen/> reduces all separator lines between CLASSES to one line, and all COMMENTS are abutted with NO empty lines between them. The other editors have a Preference to "[ ] Preserve empty lines", but not the CSS editor. It would also be nice to select a block of text and wrap it in comment opening /* and closing */ in one operation. And a fancy shortcut to select an entire class block by inserting cursor in selector/class name and using a key shortcut would be good. Some attributes/properties can take either a numeric unit of measure or a text token, such as "auto". It would be nice if the autocompletion drop-down showed placeholders (perhaps italicized) for allowable units which, when selected, would insert the unit of measure preceded by the cursor ready to type in the value. This would considerably improve the function of the autocompleter as a learning tool for the inexperience like me and perhaps save the odd keystroke, invalid input, etc. For example, ---------------- width: | 99px << this one selected | 99pt | 99pc | 99em | 99mm | 99cm | 99in | auto | inherit etc. which completes the property thus: width: |px; // where | represents the cursor Regards, Hedley -- Hedley Finger 28 Regent Street Camberwell VIC 3124 Australia Tel. +61 3 9809 1229 Fax.

soft link to the java app stub to easily open a file
by Robert Koberg 29 Aug '08

29 Aug '08

Hi, I am looking for a simple way to open a file in a running oxygen app. have found that I can open a file in a running instance of oxygen like so: $ /Applications/oxygen/Oxygen.app/Contents/MacOS/JavaApplicationStub / path/to/file.xml I tried to create a soft link the JavaApplicationStub in my home dir, but the system does not recognize it as a file. Is there some way I can alias the longish path so I can do something like (while in my home dir): $ oxy /path/to/file.xml Is there a better/easier way? thanks for any tips, -Rob

XSL-FO Docbook Transformation failing
by Mark Wilson 28 Aug '08

28 Aug '08

In an attempt to render PDF via FO, I am reading the Oxygen Users Manual (pages 314-333) and am trying the Docbook PDF transformation described on pages 326-327. However, this transformation fails with an Error Msg 1 which appears to be a FOP command line usage error. Since I cannot see the actual call to FOP from Ozygen, I have no idea how to fix this. I should also add that my FO and XSLT files run when I invoke FOP from the command line. Mark
