Re: [oXygen-user] Custom action to generate simple dialog?
If you're interested, here's one way to do this. I'm sure there's a more
elegant way and this is probably a bit if a hack, but it does what I
need right now.
1. In. your framework's Document Type dialog, on the Author:Actions
subtab, add an action to the framework, give it an ID and a Name.
2. In the Action dialog select this Operation:
ro.sync.ecss.extensions.commons.operations.JSOperation
3. A 'script' argument will be added, leave the value empty.
4. Choose OK. (Leave the Document Type dialog up for now.)
5. Create a commons.js file in the root of your framework directory,
with the following content ..
function doOperation(){
parentFrame = authorAccess.getParentFrame();
javax.swing.JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(parentFrame, "MESSAGE
HERE");
}
6. In the Document Type dialog, on the Author:Menu subtab, add your new
action to your menu (assuming one exists).
7. Choose OK, then OK.
Open a document in Author view that uses your framework. You should see
the new menu item.
Clearly, if you're already using the commons.js file for something else,
you'll need to pass in some parameter and tweak the JS code .. but this
is a start. :-)
Cheers,
Scott

Hi,
Is there a built-in method for creating an action (to call from a

Re: [oXygen-user] [OXYGEN-9425] Association Rules in frameworks
Thanks, Radu! That's sorta what I was assuming, but wanted to make sue there wasn't some special reason that entry was needed for "all" DITA-based frameworks. Yes, after removing the "DITATopicCustomRuleMatcher" java class entry, the matching seems to work as expected. Nice. Simple is good. :-) And, regarding he gremlin behavior .. so far I'm not seeing anything unexpected. Perhaps I was being careless at the end of the day .. hard to believe, I know. Fingers crossed. All the best, Scott On 10/17/23 11:19 PM, Oxygen XML Editor Support (Radu Coravu) wrote: Hi Scott, The "DITATopicCustomRuleMatcher" java class is where the magic happens :) It's quite hard to identify a DITA topic or map, it could use the base public IDs or it could refer to specialization DTDs, it could have various root element names, but the "DITATopicCustomRuleMatcher" Java class looks at various default attributes specified in the DTD like the "ditaarch:DITAArchVersion" attribute to decide if an opened XML document is actually a DITA topic or map. https://www.oxygenxml.com/InstData/Editor/SDK/javadoc/ro/sync/ecss/extensions/dita/topic/DITATopicCustomRuleMatcher.html#matches(java.lang.String,java.lang.String,java.lang.String,java.lang.String,org.xml.sax.Attributes) So with this extra rule added at the end of all other rules, our base "DITA" and "DITA Map" frameworks will be applied on any kind of specialized DITA XML topic or map, without the end user having to create a special DITA framework extension to match their type of documents. But once people start to create DITA framework extensions (like you do) for special DTD public ID, this extra rule placed at the end would no longer be necessary to you because you know that your topics and maps refer to specific DTDs. So I think it's correct that you are only using some very specific association rules in your DITA framework customization which no longer include our "DITATopicCustomRuleMatcher" class. About this behavior: but I think I'm seeing that after I remove all but the necessary rules from a particular framework, after some time, additional rules are added. When I close and save the framework, sometime later I go back and there are rules that match on Root Local Name .. concept, task, reference, etc. .. I'd swear I didn't add those.

But indeed for publishing the DITA OT publishing engine needs to have an extra plugin installed, there are no parameters which would allow passing a reference to an extra XML catalog to the DITA OT when it starts. https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/versions/25.0/ug-editor/topics/dita-integrate-specialization.html You could actually keep a separate "plugins" folder outside of the DITA OT main folder as long as you refer to it in the "DITA-OT3.x/config/configuration.properties" file: https://www.dita-ot.org/dev/parameters/configuration-properties-file.html But this would still mean the DITA OT folder would need to be changed, changes made to the "configuration.properties" followed by running the DITA OT integrator task which adds an extra reference to your XML catalog from the main DITA OT XML catalog. And the main problem is that on Windows, Oxygen is usually installed in the "Program Files" folder which is read-only and making changes to files there is problematic if you do not have admin privileges. Some more ways to distribute a custom DITA OT to the users: 1) Make the custom DITA OT available as an add-on: https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/versions/25.0/ug-editor/topics/contribute-external-dita-ot-extension.html For example here: https://github.com/oxygenxml/dita-ot-3x-plugin In the Oxygen main menu "Help->Install new add-ons" you can point Oxygen to an HTTP location containing the zipped DITA OT and Oxygen would download it and make it available in the "Preferences->DITA" page. 2) Add the custom DITA OT folder directly inside the framework folder. an Oxygen framework can provide also custom transformation scenarios and the custom transformation scenarios could use the "Parameters->"dita.dir"" parameter to refer to the custom DITA OT bundled with the framework. 3) If you use a Git repository for example you could also commit the custom DITA OT inside the repository so that everyone gets it when they check out the project.

It seems like my only options are (after installing the framework) .. - install and integrate the "doctypes" plugin into the default OT in Oxygen - OR .. provide another OT that has the doctypes plugin installed and have the users point to that as a custom DITA-OT in Oxygen Thoughts?

[oXygen-user] Custom DTDs with default Oxygen OT
I think I know the answer to this question, but want to confirm that I'm not missing something. I've got a set of custom DITA DTDs wrapped up in an OT plugin. If I install this plugin in the OT, I'm able to successfully generate output from content that uses the public IDs defined by those DTDs. However, what I'd like is to include this plugin in an Oxygen framework, and have the custom doctypes honored for OT builds without "installing" the plugin. As it stands, users can install the framework and edit topics and maps using the custom doctypes. It validates fine and all is well, but when they go to do an OT build, it fails to recognize the location for the custom DTDs. I thought there was an OT parameter that let you specify the location of an alternate catalog file, but I'm not seeing that.

It seems like my only options are (after installing the framework) .. - install and integrate the "doctypes" plugin into the default OT in Oxygen - OR .. provide another OT that has the doctypes plugin installed and have the users point to that as a custom DITA-OT in Oxygen Thoughts?

Hi,
There is an /oxy_xpath()/ [1] function available that can execute
XPath, but I'm not sure how it would help in this scenario. What comes
to mind is the /onChange/ property on the combo box form control
because it's value can be another action invoke when the combo commits
a value. For example, you can invoke an XQuery update script [3] which
can inspect the document to see what value was committed and can
afterwards alter the document accordingly.
comboBox:before {
*content*:"A combo box that edits an attribute value. The possible values are
provided from CSS:"
oxy_combobox(
edit,"@attribute",
editable, false,
values,"value1, value2, value3",

operation,'XQueryUpdateOperation',

Just wondering if there's an "eval" custom CSS function .. ?
I've got an oxy_combobox that lists a number of attributes, and would
like to be able to test the selected value. If a certain attribute
was selected, I want to set another attribute on the same element.
I know I can do this by writing some Java code, but wanted to make
sure I wasn't missing something obvious with the custom CSS functions.
Thanks!

Re: [oXygen-user] Oxygen/Perforce connector?
Thanks, Adrian and George! It's good to know that this is *possibly* on your radar. While probably not as popular as Git, I'd imagine that there would be many companies who would make use of a plugin for Perforce. Our use is not an immediate need, so .. maybe it'll become a reality .. ? I have seen that they could use Oxygen in Eclipse and use the Eclipse connector to Perforce .. but that adds another layer and they are already set up with standalone Oxygen. Not an ideal solution, but possible. All the best! ...scott On 10/26/22 1:08 AM, George Bina wrote: Hi Scott, Please note that we also provide an Eclipse plugin distribution https://www.oxygenxml.com/xml_editor/download_oxygenxml_editor.html?os=Eclipse and there are many other Eclipse plugins available, including a Perforce plugin, see for example: https://www.perforce.com/plugins-integrations/eclipse-plugin So, you may use Oxygen and Perforce together within the Eclipse environment.

Hi Scott,
Welcome to the Oxygen mailing list!
The DITA "Insert image" dialog has a "Figure title" text field. Once
you fill that, it automatically inserts a figure. So what you want may
not be that necessary.
Coming back to what you want, the "cc_config.xml" file does not have
the ability to invoke custom actions in certain contexts.
There are other settings when creating a DITA framework extension
which allow you to remove an item from the content completion window
(for example remove ) and add instead of it a custom Author
action with the same name which may perform other things when invoked:
https://blog.oxygenxml.com/topics/custom-author-action-content-completion.html
For example you can create a custom Author action which inserts an XML
snippet like this in the document:
""
Oxygen has support for various editor variables which get expanded
when used in XML snippets:
https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/versions/24.1/ug-editor/topics/editor-variables.html
This "/{ask('Input URL', ///relative_url/)}/" editor variable would
show a very simple URL chooser, so it does not show the "Insert image"
dialog.
If you want to show the "Insert image" dialog, you have the option to
create an Author action which calls a sequence of two or more other
Author actions:
https://blog.oxygenxml.com/topics/composing-author-actions.html

Is it possible to get an image to be added when a fig is inserted,
