Hi Frank,

Yes, it can, you just open it and switch it to the Author visual editor.

Maybe to avoid people on the list receiving lots of email you can open a thread on the forum and we can discuss there.

Regards,

Radu

Can a DITA-OT project file be edited in Author mode? Which CSS file do I have to associate with it?

Betreff: [oXygen-user] First steps with a DITA-OT project file

 

Hello support, hello users,

 

I am trying to create WebHelp Responsive for various products and languages, with different logos, color setup, ditaval filtering, etc.

 

I understand that I should define all this in a DITA-OT Project File to avoid having many transformation scenarios with a very similar, but not identical setup, which would cause additional maintenance effort.

 

How do I specify this project file in Oxygen to create output? Is this the correct approach (see figure below)?

 

It seems that I must create a Scenario for a specific transformation type, although there may be various different trafo types defined in the project file. Seems a bit weird...

 

Do the parameters in the project file override those specified in the scenario?

 

Can I, in a specific file section, specify settings shared by all deliverables and then settings that apply only to a specific deliverable?

 

How can I choose which deliverable(s) to create? I never build all of them at the same time.

 

Thank you for your help.

 

Regards,

 

Frank
