Dan, thanks for your comprehensive answer. Indeed, the problem was that i did not add the action to the "Menu", but only to the toolbar. In fact, i can't see the Document Type Menu (before my Document Menu i can only see the button WSDL Soap Analysator) and i wonder if i have one (checked the toolbar options, but can't see something like this), but after adding the actions to the menu shortcuts work like charm. maybe a note should be added to the shortcut section in the user guide, if there isn't one which i missed... thanks again, Philipp Dan Caprioara schrieb:
Hello Philipp, The only built-in actions that can be used from a document type are the one inserting an XML fragment and the one inserting a text. If you need more advanced features, like inserting an XML fragment and then moving the caret after the inserted block, you should write your action in Java, then refer it from the document type. For more details, see:
http://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/ug-standalone/dg_java_api.html http://www.oxygenxml.com/InstData/Developer/oxygenAuthorSDK.zip
You will have to create a Java class that implements: ro.sync.ecss.extensions.api.AuthorOperation, something like this:
class InsertLB implements ro.sync.ecss.extensions.api.AuthorOperation{
public void doOperation( AuthorAccess authorAccess, ArgumentsMap arguments) throws IllegalArgumentException, AuthorOperationException {
String fragment = "<lb/>"; // Inserts this fragment at the caret position. int caretPosition = authorAccess.getCaretOffset(); authorAccess.insertXMLFragment(fragment, caretPosition); // Moves the caret after the start tag and end tag of <lb/> authorAccess.setCaretPosition(caretPosition + 2); } /** * Has no arguments. * * @return null. */ public ArgumentDescriptor[] getArguments() { return null; }
/** * @return A description of the operation. */ public String getDescription() { return "Inserts a line break. Moves the caret after the inserted fragment."; } }
After creating the Java file, you should follow the steps from the User Guide and deploy this action into your Document Type association.
Regarding the shortcuts, I have tested the "Bold" action using the shortcut "CTRL-SHIFT-B" and it works. I have change it to "CTRL-SHIFT-K" and worked also. Can you try to reopen the edited document after changing the shortcut?
Please check that the action you created is inserted in the Document Type menu (should appear in the main menu bar), before the menu "Document". If it is included only in the toolbar, the shortcut is ignored! Also you can check in the menu to see if the listed actions have the expected shortcuts. Another problem might be duplicated shortcuts (actions from the editor menus that have the same key combination) .
Best regards, Dan

Dear Oxy-users,
I am currently trying to learn how to do DocType Associations and I experienced two problems, a minor and a major one.
Heres the minor problem: I created a new button to insert a <lb/> element. Inserting works fine, i.e. after clicking the button, a <lb/> appears in the code. But in author mode, i guess because <lb/> is defined as a block element (to actually make the linebreak appear) it is shown as <lb></lb> and the cursor in placed inside the <lb></lb> after inserting it. So if the editor continues to write, he fills the <lb> which is of course not allowed by the schema. What I would like to do is to position the cursor behind the element after inserting it. is that possible?
The major problem concerns shortcuts: i defined a shortcut for the button, but it just doesn't work. Thats also true for predefined buttons, not only for my newly created ones. I tried to use the TEI Doctype and no shortcut works. I have no idea how to approach this problem. What could I do?
Thanks! Philipp
