DITA footnotes in Author mode
Hi list, oXygen does not seem to have any special styling for DITA footnotes in Author mode. They are just shown as inline elements in italics. Has anybody managed to style footnots with CSS in a way similar to how they would like on a page, i.e. on the bottom of the page with ascending numbers and a superscript number at the location where the footnote is referenced? I made some attempts with "fn {position: absolute; bottom: -2em}", but was not CSS-skilled enough to prevent the footnotes all being placed on top of each other. And I don't know how to implement a counter for elements that are scattered over the element tree (not children of the same element). Any ideas?

Hi Frank, I did something for a variant of TEI vocabulary used for articles, you can find the project https://github.com/georgebina/jteiPlus The notes are numbered and set on the right side as callouts and collapesed by default, with an inline action to be expanded. The relevant CSS is https://github.com/georgebina/jteiPlus/blob/master/frameworks/tei-custom/css... and you can try it online using the web author at https://www.oxygenxml.com/oxygen-xml-web-author/app/oxygen.html?url=webdav-https%3A%2F%2Fwww.oxygenxml.com%2Foxygen-xml-web-author%2Fplugins-dispatcher%2Fwebdav-server%2Fjtei%2FDEMOjtei-8-eide-source.xml&stylesheet-titles=Footnotes&author=Anonymous&highlightedActions=%5B%7B%22id%22%3A%22Author%2FShareSession%22%7D%5D I used z-index to bring the note you have the mouse over to the front :). Hope this example helps! Best Regards, George -- George Cristian Bina <oXygen/> XML Editor, Schema Editor and XSLT Editor/Debugger http://www.oxygenxml.com On 2/9/23 11:11 AM, Frank Dissinger wrote:
