Hi Radu, * Oxygen XML Editor Support dixit [2013-10-23 13:48]:
Unfortunately our editor variables support is quite limited so you cannot do (a) and (c) using editor variables. So you would have to implement a custom operation in Java which would look at the current attribute value, show a dialog to the user and then use our API to set the attribute on the element:
I see. I admit I had hoped to get around writing a custom Java operation but it seems sooner or later I will have to have a look into it anyway. I will probably postpone it somewhat but then try the route you have suggested. Regarding the in-place attributes editor dialog and the attributes view: thanks a lot, I simply did not think of them and the in-place editor is just what I wanted. Thanks a lot for your help.
