Some table operations not supported on HTML tables used as informaltable in DocBook
Hi, I have realized that some table operations in Author are not always available. After some investigation it seems that problematic are informaltable elements in DocBook when they use HTML table model. If I create such table then for example operation "Join" is not available in toolbar/context menu. Everything works well on informaltables that use CALS table model or on normal tables using HTML table model. Only informatable with HTML table model has this issue. Is this bug or have I missed something?

Hi Jirka, Looks like a small bug on our side, I'll add an internal issue to fix it. If in the Oxygen Preferences->"Document Type Association" page you edit the "DocBook 5" framework, in the "Author->Actions" list there is a "table.join" action which when edited has two activation modes, one for CALS tables and one for HTML tables. The second operation mode's XPath needs to be relaxed a little bit. Are there other operations that you consider should be enabled in this context?

Thanks, that helped to fix the issue. It should occured to me that this can be done so easily. ;-)

Perhaps also show.table.properties action. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------ Jirka Kosek e-mail: jirka@kosek.cz http://xmlguru.cz ------------------------------------------------------------------ Professional XML and Web consulting and training services DocBook/DITA customization, custom XSLT/XSL-FO document processing ------------------------------------------------------------------ Bringing you XML Prague conference http://xmlprague.cz ------------------------------------------------------------------
