Hello, I am using V2.5 Patch 1 and am in the process of verifying 2 documents... one of which will go to the translator for updating. The document causing the problems has been imported from Framemaker SGML where it had used DocBook 3.something. The Framemaker Document opens fine in XXE though it does have about 300 validity problems (most of which are graphic link related)
Problem 1, I cannot delete "id"s set by Framemaker... for example, Sect1 says id=BABGGIJJ and I want to get rid of it completely. If I replace it with something else it is okay but if I try to delete it I get ERROR Syntax error in NCName value "" Problem 2 When I do replace the "id"s set by framemaker with new "id"s from another XML document I cannot immediately paste the response into the sect1(or chapter or whatever) "id" field UNLESS I ALT-TAB out of XXE and back in... then it works fine. So I a) highlight id text from old document b) copy id text to clipboard c) select new document (which is already open) d) select the correct sect1 e) highlight that sect1's "id" tag f) ALT-TAB to any other program.. i.e. out of XXE g) ALT-TAB back in h) paste text into the highlighted field I think that steps f & g are bugs somehow. Problem 3 After finishing all of this the active document is the new document. If I try to go to a "para" text and edit it I cannot use the keyboard (like backspace, space, letters... anything) BUT I can right click on my mouse and use one of the drop down menus. If I reselect (click it) the first document and then reselect the new document (click it) then I can use the keyboard on the text. PLEASE NOTE that in all cases I am using the tree view since I am working with multi-language versions of the same document and because I am cleaning up the horrible XML of Framemaker's export.
