What was new in <oXygen/> XML Editor 10.2
April 15, 2009
There are changes in:
Content change tracking
The support for collaborative editing was improved with the addition of
content change tracking to the <oXygen/> 10.2 visual editing mode.
Change Tracking [read more...] Change Tracking is a way to
keep a history of the changes made to a document. When change tracking is enabled, the
inserted and deleted content is highlighted in the document allowing you to easily
identify the affected regions. Also, tracked changes can be rendered in callouts
(balloons) displayed at the side of the document, with connecting lines pointing to the
changed content. | ![]() |
Change Management [read more...]
You can review the changes made by you or other authors and
then accept or reject them using the Track Changes toolbar buttons or by using the
change management dialog.
Visual editing (Author) mode
Compact representation for the tags-on view
<oXygen/> offers 6 different modes for presenting the element tags,
ranging from no tags to full tags with attributes. In version 10.2 the tags are
displayed in a compact way allowing the user to see more of his document in the
same editing area.
Improved support for included content
The representation of included content (external entities, XInclude,
etc.) was updated to label the included content with only a small icon that allows
to open the referred document. The content of the included document is rendered in
the including document and can appear both in block and in inline
contexts.
Support for CSS "width" properties
<oXygen/> XML Editor version 10.2 provides support for the CSS "width"
properties: min-width, max-width and
width. This allows specifying the width for tables, table
columns, paragraphs, images, etc.
New CSS extension function - attributes()
This CSS extension function returns a string containing serialized form
of the attributes of the current element and allows writing a CSS for <oXygen/>
XML Author that presents parts of the document as XML code.
Document Frameworks
More flexible document to framework association
It is possible now to use patterns when defining the document type
association rules. For example to detect ant scripts the association rules can
specify the root element to be "project" and the files names to match the pattern
"build*.xml".
Image scaling
The default CSS stylesheets for DITA, DocBook and XHTML were updated to
use the image width attributes to automatically scale the images to match the
specified widths.
Table width and column width support
The <oXygen/> Author API for tables provides support for width
management. The default table support for DITA, DocBook and XHTML was updated to
take into account the width from the table and column specifications covering both
fixed and proportional dimensions.
Visual table width management
<oXygen/> 10.2 allows to visually resize DITA, DocBook and XHTML
tables and table columns in the Author mode.
DITA OT 1.4.3
<oXygen/> integrates the latest DITA Open Toolkit, version
1.4.3.
DocBook olink support
<oXygen/> allows to easily insert an olink by browsing or searching
the olink database.
Added DocBook 4.5 DTDs
The DocBook 4.5 DTDs are available in the DocBook 4
framework.
New frameworks
A Widgets framework provides a default schema for the widget
configuration files. A Twitter framework provides a default CSS for rendering
Twitter statuses in the Author mode.
Author SDK
New Author API extension: CSS styles filter
Developers can change the styles of the XML elements displayed in the
author mode dynamically by registering a styles filter
implementation.
New Author API extension: content completion filter
Developers can change the list of content completion proposals by
registering a content completion filter implementation.
New document listener methods
Developers can register listeners for receiving notifications about the
content to be inserted and deleted. The document changes can be accepted or
rejected.
XML Schema
New design of the XML Schema diagram
The components from the XML Schema diagram gain in visibility by using
different colors and shapes for each component type. The symbols for the
compositors (sequence, choice, all) and the occurrence labels are more compact and
layout friendly. The connection lines are thickened when linked to a required
component. There are also many other changes that make the diagram more
ergonomic.
Search and refactoring actions available from the XML Schema diagram
The powerful search and rename components actions can be triggered now
from the XML Schema diagram and from the Outline view. The scope of these actions
can be set to the entire project or to a list of files and
directories.
Editing improvements in the XML Schema diagram
There are a number of improvements in the editing support for the XML
schemas including: in-diagram editing for attributes, in-place editing for
all/sequence/choice and a number of new drag and drop actions, for instance
dropping a type on an element to set the element type, on a complex type to set
the base type, etc.
Hierarchy/Dependencies view for XML Schema import/include links
The relationship between schemas can be visualized and understood with
the help of the hierarchy and dependencies view.
Author mode for XML Schema
The Author mode is available on the XML Schema editor allowing to edit
the annotations visually and presenting a really nice and compact view of the XML
Schema, with support for links on included/imported schemas. Embedded Schematron
rules can be rendered using the alternate CSS stylesheet for XML Schema plus
Schematron.
XML Schema documentation
Component level chunking
The XHTML output of the XML Schema documentation can be generated in
chunks, one file for each XML Schema component. This is useful when generating
documentation for large schemas when a split based on namespace or schema file
that were previously available is not enough to get files of reasonable size for
the documentation output.
Relax NG, Schematron and NVDL
Hierarchy/Dependencies view for Relax NG import/externalRef links
The relationship between Relax NG schemas can be visualized and
understood with the help of the hierarchy and dependencies view.
Author mode for Relax NG
The Author mode is available in the Relax NG schema editor presenting
the schema very similar with the Relax NG compact syntax. The imported schemas and
external references are presented with links enabling an easier navigation to
those schemas. Embedded Schematron rules can be rendered using the alternate CSS
stylesheet for Relax NG plus Schematron.
Author mode for Schematron
The Author mode is available in the Schematron editor presenting the
Schematron and ISO Schematron schemas in a nice visual rendering.
Author mode for NVDL
The Author mode is available in the NVDL scripts editor presenting them
in a compact and easy to understand representation.
XSLT and XQuery
Hierarchy/Dependencies view for XSLT import/include links
The relationship between XSLT stylesheets can be visualized and
understood with the help of the hierarchy and dependencies view.
Sequence view for presenting XQuery transformation results
The new Sequence view for XQuery output allows to browse and identify
each of the sequence members. It takes advantage of the lazy evaluation support
implemented by some XML databases to fetch the results on demand.
XSLT and XQuery content completion for Saxon extensions
Saxon specific functions are proposed by the content completion for
XSLT and XQuery when the extensions namespace is declared. The functions are
presented together with their documentation so the developer gets instant
help.
Author mode for XSLT
The Author mode is available in the XSLT editor. This enables the
possibility to provide different views on the XSLT stylesheets.
General and usability features
Contextual actions of the Archive Browser view to preview images and SVG
files
<oXygen/> allows working with ZIP based formats (OOXML, ODF, Widgets,
etc.) by presenting their content in an Archive browser and editing their
resources as normal files. It is possible now to see also the images and to render
the SVG files from the Archive Browser view.
More information in the Elements view
The Elements view shows also the other elements that can appear inside
the current element but not at the current position.
Better accessibility for dialogs
<oXygen/> computes automatically and sets mnemonics on all the dialogs
actions so you can use ALT+letter to invoke them.
Filter for the "Menu shortcut keys" options
All of the <oXygen/> actions can be invoked through shortcuts defined
in the Options->Menu Shortcut keys preferences page. The new filter allows to
quickly locate an action to define a shortcut for it.
Support for read-only files
A lock decoration appears in the editor tab for read-only files and the
content cannot be changed. The read-only status appears also in the Properties
view.
More editor variables
A new editor variable is available representing the path separator,
${ps}, that allows creating portable command lines for external tools. The editor
variable for <oXygen/> home folder, ${oxygenInstallDir}, is available in the
context of configuring an external FO processor.
Component updates
Saxon SA
<oXygen/> includes the latest Saxon-SA, version 9.1.0.6.
Oracle Berkeley DB XML
Support for the latest Oracle Berkeley DB XML, version
2.4.16.
Documentum xDb
<oXygen/> supports now Documentum xDb (former X-Hive/DB)
8.1.3.
NekoHTML
<oXygen/> integrates the latest NekoHTML, version 1.9.11 for
converting HTML to XHTML.
