Question

Graphic files not displaying within Editor

Afternoon~

 

My team currently has Arbortext 7.1 deployed out to them for editing various .xml files. Long story short - When we switched database software, there were some issues and all the highly customized stylesheets (.fos) we had were lost. Through a pain staking process these stylesheets were restored - however, graphic files (.cgm, .svg, .png etc) are no longer displaying for the team within the Editor window. 

 

I've verified that the graphics selection is checked underneath the view tab. Within the Entities tab, both the graphic name, file name and notation are properly declared (Graphic), as well the notation name and system ID (Notations). Adding in hotspot data for sheet to sheet linking is fully functional. Even the built in Check Completeness function verifies there are no errors within the document.

 

I want to believe that the problem now lies within the configuration/document type files that would need to re-created (similar to the .fos files that were lost), but am unsure as to how to go through the process. Any guidance would be appreciated.

If you have highly customized stylesheets then it stands to reason that the root of the problem is probably within the stylesheets. You could try some of the out-of-the-box document types and see if graphics work there, to rule out any network or file issues. You may need specialist assistance to resolve this one; our company (www.gpsl.co) has Arbortext engineers who can assist.

If by chance it aids in troubleshooting the above, here are the only 2 e-i-c tags registered within the .fos stylesheets against graphic files within the existing stylesheets (Again, as I'm not exactly an expert here, there may be something obvious I'm missing). To the best of my knowledge one is used for formatting the Figure name, stored as <graphictitle.psu> and the other is for Enumeration of the figure, sheet and graphic ("<xf_figure>,</xf_figure>,\ \, figure.ct, \, \, <xf_sheet>,</xf_sheet>,\ \, graphic.ct>") respectively .
