  • (1888PressRelease) May 07, 2015 - Release date: May 6, 2015. Oxygen XML Editor version 17 sets the highest standard for XML development and XML authoring. It comes with important functionality updates and focuses on design to make your work not only productive, but also enjoyable.

    The new user interface features Retina/HiDPI icons to make everything look crisp and beautiful, and an optional graphite color theme. Toolbars are configurable down to action level and they put you in full control of your work environment.

    Oxygen XML Editor not only reports errors, it also helps you automatically correct them through Quick Fix and AutoCorrect support. In version 17, the Quick Fix support provides solutions for XML documents validated against Relax NG, XSD, and Schematron schemas. In the case of Schematron, the schema developer is in full control of the Quick Fix actions, offering the user one or more solutions to any detected issue. The new AutoCorrect functionality also helps to automatically fix common typing errors.

    The new XML Refactoring support extends the power of Find/Replace across multiple files by applying XML-aware operations through a user-friendly interface. Additional custom operations can be easily plugged-in for Enterprise Edition users.

    XML developers can take advantage of the XQuery and embedded XPath formatting feature. They can also use Oxygen XML Editor with the latest versions of MarkLogic and eXist XML databases, Saxon XSLT, XQuery and XML Schema engines, and XML Calabash XProc processor.

    Version 17 takes a huge step forward in improving the CSS support that Oxygen XML Editor uses to render XML documents in Author mode. The new CSS Inspector view allows you to see what styles are applied to each element and to immediately navigate to the CSS source. If CSS does not give you enough flexibility then you can use LESS either directly, pointing to the LESS file, or automatically compile LESS to CSS when saving. Building eye-catching authoring interfaces can now be achieved by taking advantage of the support for relative, absolute, and fixed positioning of CSS blocks. You can also develop visual layouts that can respond dynamically to different page widths, define actions directly in CSS, and place static content on multiple "before" and "after" layers for any element.

    The improved CSS support is used for DITA topics and maps to offer a choice of main rendering styles, as well as the option to add or subtract style layers. Guided DITA authoring was implemented as two optional style layers that allow you to see inline hints and actions. The CSS-based PDF output transformation automatically uses the CSS styles you select for authoring, so that you can reuse the same CSS files when publishing DITA to PDF. Oxygen bundles the latest DITA-OT 1.8 but version 2.0 is also supported, and integrating a new transformation is greatly simplified for annotated transformation types, as Oxygen will automatically discover their parameters.

    The DITA/DocBook to WebHelp transformations optimize the page loading time and provide support for context-sensitive help, SEO resources, and LDAP authentication. The WebHelp output that now supports both RTL scripts and Japanese content can be easily embedded in a page.

    The Web-based XML authoring SDK now provides new extension points to facilitate integration, as well as an adaptive user interface that is both mobile and desktop-friendly. Find more about the Oxygen WebApp and try it online at http://www.oxygenxml.com/webapp/

    In response to integrators feedback, the Oxygen SDK has many new API updates to access additional extension points and to facilitate seamless integration.

    Oxygen version 17 includes new frameworks for supporting JATS, ISO StratML, and XLIFF, while the TEI framework was updated to contain the latest schemas and stylesheets. The SVN client has also been updated to include a variety of improvements and bug fixes.
