Unique aspects of the IXIASOFT framework

The IXIASOFT framework differs from the oXygen XML Web Author framework in several ways affecting the user interface, elements, and content completion.

Interface

  • The font was changed to Georgia.
  • The following tools are not displayed in the main toolbar:
    • Choose DITA Map
    • Insert
    • Reuse Content
    • Link > Cross-reference
    • Link > File Reference
  • The following tools are not displayed in the right-click menu:
    • Insert > Insert Section
    • Insert > Insert Equation
    • Insert > Insert Concept
    • Insert > Insert Task
    • Insert > Insert Reference
    • Insert > Insert Topic
    • Link > Cross-reference
    • Link > File Reference
    • Generate IDs
    • Reuse
    • About Element

Elements

  • Placeholder text was added to some elements to offer guidance to users.
  • The following elements are configured to not be displayed in the Editing page (and the Content Completion Assistant):
    • XML comments
    • processing instructions
    • Indexing group elements
    • Prolog elements
    • draft-comment element
  • The following elements were configured to be displayed as read-only:
    • Related links elements
    • MathML domain elements
    • SVG elements

Content Completion Assistant

  • The default behavior for the Content Completion Assistant was changed. Instead of opening when the user presses Enter, it opens when the user presses Ctrl + Enter.
  • The Content Completion Assistant was configured not to display some elements, because they either require a mandatory attribute or are elements that are configured as read-only; for example, all the elements that require the href attribute are not displayed.
