Re: [oXygen-user] [ANN] Writer Helper Add-on - the newest release in the Oxygen add-on library!

2021-10-13 Thread Oxygen XML Editor Support (Radu Coravu) 

Hi Yves,

I'm glad you enjoy the new add-on.

Based on Pieterjan's similar request we added an issue for this:

    EXM-49001 [Writer Helper] Automatically create reusable components

We do not have some precise future plans for it, we found useful for our 
interns to work on it in order to get more accustomed using the Oxygen 
APIs but indeed one direction would be to automatically create a 
reusable component and conref to it from all places.


My initial wish for the add-on was for it to be useful no matter what 
XML vocabulary you are using, so it does not have any DITA-specific 
features.


Also the add-on only takes the text content into account when finding 
similar content, so if your two similar paragraphs have different 
attributes or they contain key refs, like for example one of them has a 
keyref  and the other does not, we still report them 
as similar because we rely on the end user to make the final choice. So 
if we add tools to make changes to the content we would need to find 
perfect matches, paragraphs or blocks which have the same attributes and 
precisely the same XML structure.


Regards,

Radu

Hi Alin,

I have just tested the add-on and I like the Find Similar Content 
feature. Next question is, of course, whether there is some kind of 
clever feature to turn (or transform) all of these elements in the 
Results pane into a conkeyref and replace the identical content in one 
go. ;-)


Kind regards
