Modify-Attributes Dialog as docked window

$
0
0

Hi guys,

 

in arbortext editor 7.0 we would like to dock (right) the Modify-Attributes Dialog:

modifyattr.png

 

For our users it would be very helpful, to modify attributes of the current tag always in a docked attribute window.

Our aim is to dock this window, and update the element, so that every attribute of that clicked element can be changed very fast.

Therefore our plan was to reload this window if the oid_tag has changed. We tried to find this dialog as xml to try to dock this, but without success.

 

Do you have any other idea to realize this feature?

Thank you in advance for your help.

strange behaviour with modify attribute dialog (Arbortext Editor 7.0)

$
0
0

Hi,

 

if we would like to modfiy attributes of the markup, where the cursor is placed in, the Arbortext Editor shows the attributes of the wrong element.

 

You can see this in this example:

The cursor is inside the tag "para" but the modify attribute dialog shows the attribute dialog of the element "emphasis".

modifyattr_bug.png

 

Our expectation is that the editor shows the attributes of "para", because the cursor is inside this element.

 

Can we change this behaviour? Maybe with a set-command? Or is this a bug of the arbortext editor?

Thank you for your help in advance.

Is it possible to manage Dita href attribute encoding ?

$
0

Hello,

 

I have a problem with resolution of href attribute on a topicref element in Arbortext editor (v6.1 M070). The problem is not present with v6.1 M000.

 

When I have this url "../../../Temp/StructureTopics/pr%C3%A9face.dita" on my topicref it's possible to open the topic from my dita book map.

But when I resolve the map (for modify style), AE is not able to retrieve dita file. I have this message " Pseudo rubrique : DITA Topic \"file:/_ATI_Not_Found_/../../../Temp/StructureTopics/pr%C3%A9face.dita\" introuvable"

 

In the href attribute, if I replace "%C3%A9" by a "é" (../../../Temp/StructureTopics/préface.dita) I don't have the problem.

 

Does it exist a parameter in AE to manage specific characters in url ?

 

Thanks.

compose_for_pdf issue with PE?

$
0
0

I am working in Arbortext 7 M010 and I have a small ACL file that globs a dir, runs doc_open and window_create, then runs get_composer(), inserts values for the stylesheet and outputFile params in the pdf.ccf, then calls compose::compose_for_pdf().

 

The problem I am having is when the first call to compose_to_pdf is made, it reports back that the doctype is not installed on the PE server, despite the fact that I know it is (opening a globbed doc regularly allows me to publish through PE just fine).

 

Has anyone seen this?  I've restarted PE services, rescanned composition, did the PE compare, did flush_composer, I'm not seeing why opening a doc with doc_open/window_create/doc_show causes the doctype to not be seen on the PE server.

 

thanks,

Here is my acl script:

$win=window_create('xui', 0x10, $doc, '300x800-1-1');

window_show($win,1);

 

Here is my XML file--test.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!--Arbortext, Inc., 1988-2011, v.4002-->
<!DOCTYPE window PUBLIC "-//Arbortext//DTD XUI XML 1.1//EN"

for (var i = 0; i < list1.length; i++) {
   Application.alert(list1.item(i).getAttribute("id"));
}
for (var i = 0; i < list2.length; i++) {
   Application.alert(list2.item(i).getAttribute("id"));
};
var dialog = Application.event.view.window;
dialog.close();
</script>
</button>
<button id="Cancel" label="Cancel" type="cancel"></button>

How could I pass both list1 and list2 strings in my XML back to my acl script for further processing?

 

Your help will be greatly appreciated.

syntax for passing attribute value to simple acl function

$

0

I'm having trouble figuring out how to pass an attribute value to a simple acl function that formats and returns the value to save it to a variable. The attribute is "revdate" and the eic is "cmm"

 

<e-I-c gi="cmm>

...

<att>

<specval attname="revdate" attval="#ANY">

<fillval attname="myfuncs::format_date" attloc="system-func" fillcat="savetext" fillchar="conrule">

<charsubset>

<savetext textid="issuedate.txt">

</charsubset>

 

Plus I know I'm not declaring the function correctly:

function format_date(window,oid)

...

local date=oid_attr(oid, ?);

...

 

Any help is appreciated.

Hi,

 

When I launch PDF publication on a ditamap, I'm able to trace publishing events to a file with this command :

composer_log("c:\\temp\\event.log", $eventlog::SEVERITY_INFO, 2)

 

But Is it possible to fully deactivate event log (don't display the window) in Arbortext Editor ?

 

Thanks.
