Speed up the opening of a map

To improve the speed at which the IXIASOFT CCMS Desktop opens a map, you can configure the objects that do not need to be loaded automatically when a map is open.

For example, you could configure the CCMS Desktop so that submaps are not automatically loaded when you open a map. They get loaded only when you open them from the DITA Map view.

Note: You should make these configuration changes in the Test environment and test them before copying them to the Production environment. In a dedicated SaaS deployment, after testing the changes, ask IXIASOFT Customer Support to copy the changes to the Production environment.
  1. In the TEXTML Administration perspective, connect to your server.
  2. Locate the display.xml file in the repository's /system/conf collection.
  3. Check out the file and open it for editing.
  4. Locate the <maps> element.
    For example:
    ...
    <maps>
       <references>
          <unexpanded class="- map/map container/container "/>
          <unexpanded class="- map/map container/container containerpart/containerpart "/>
       </references>
       <container class="- map/map container/container ">
          <subcontainer xpath="//*[contains(@class, ' mapgroup-d/mapref ')]" attrib="href"/>
       </container>
    </maps>

    By default, the DITA Map view does not load the containers, which are used in the Dynamic Release Management module.

  5. To configure an object so that it does not get loaded, add its class to the <references> element.
    For example, to prevent submaps from being loaded when you open a map, add the map class to the <references> element, as follows:
    ...
    <references>
       <unexpanded class="- map/map "/>
  6. Save, close, and check in the file.
  7. Inform users of the changes.
    The changes will be applied automatically once users close and then reopen their IXIASOFT CCMS Desktop. Users can also apply the changes without restarting their CCMS Desktop by clicking IXIASOFT CCMS > Synchronize Configuration.
