I'm always forgetting to reply to list ... ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Wendell Piez <wapiez@wendellpiez.com> Date: Tue, Jan 28, 2014 at 9:53 AM Subject: Re: [oXygen-user] Toggling @keyref with Tags Display Mode To: Roger Sheen <infotexture@gmail.com> Hi Roger, To bind this behavior to "No Tags Mode" raises all kinds of questions regarding exactly which behaviors are toggled when. Keep in mind that Tags Display functionality applies to all document types, not just DITA. Much simpler, and cleaner layering, is to deploy another CSS stylesheet alongside the generic one, with whatever customizations you want. oXygen lets you have as many CSS displays to choose from as you wish to configure. Users can switch between them with a pull-down menu. You can do this yourself. Your new CSS can import the old one and simply override where necessary. I can imagine other solutions, such as designating an attribute flag in the document that toggles display behavior. Using oXygen's forms widgetry, one could present this as a radio button widget (for example) and let the user toggle from inside the document. But this would mean both extending DITA to support it, and arguably crossing an architectural line, since the document is now being asked to carry display semantics specifically for the editing environment. And this raises questions for document interchange, etc. etc. I'm sure there are other ideas I haven't thought of. :-) Cheers, Wendell On Tue, Jan 28, 2014 at 7:33 AM, Roger Sheen <infotexture@gmail.com> wrote:
While working on Author mode CSS customizations today, I was looking for a way to remove the @keyref values that are automatically displayed before *keyword* elements when editing DITA topics.
The content in this project makes heavy use of keywords, and many authors find the extra text distracting.
I found the relevant rule on line 1053 of the default `topic.css` file and added an override in my custom CSS to remove `"[" attr(keyref) "]"` from the inserted content (but still display the link).
This solution works, but I was thinking it might be better if this could be toggled along with the *Tags display mode*. When set to *No Tags*, it would be nice if these values were hidden. I would expect them to be displayed in other modes that progressively disclose additional visual cues.
Any thoughts?
Regards,
Roger
