Greetings adepters,Arbortext Editor 5,3m040 running on 64-bit Windows 7 SP1 with 4 Gig of RAM (8 Gig on some PCs).Someone (the evidence points to me) set a preference or did something else that causes an SGML document to be saved without the doctype header.The following came up on a help search, but I need to know which preference causes it to not be saved when exiting Arbortext Editor.Ensuring valid headersMake sure the instance file has a valid SGML header structure. Three examples of valid headers are listed below:

Hi all,I've just installed Arbortext Editor v6 M090 and discovered that the compiler has changed and I need to recompile all my v6 F000 doctypes.I haven't needed to install the other patch releases so hadn't realised that the compiler had changed.Does anyone know when the compiler changed? Was it in M090 or an earlier release?ThanksAdrian Jordin - Senior ConsultantMekon Ltd.intelligent content solutionse adrian.jordin@mekon.com<|">mailto:adrian.jordin@mekon.com>| t +44 (0)117 303 5202 | m +44 (0)7515294338| w www.aerospace-defence.com<">http://www.aerospace-defence.com>Todays content needs agility - www.congility.com

Hello adepters,I want to understand how graphics drag and drop support is done in Editor.If I drag a graphic from the filesystem and put it into my XML session, the (with at least some help from the dcf file, I assume), interprets this as a graphic and then inserts the graphic element with an href to my local file system path of the graphic (from where I dragged it from). This works great.I want to understand how this works as I have a requirement to drag an object from my proprietary java application and have it work in the same way. I've taken an initial look in some documentation but mostly find information such as how to insert graphics via menu options in Epic. I tried a couple of easy mocks, such as copying the object in Windows and pasting in a valid place in Epic, and also copying the path of the graphic and pasting in a valid location, to no avail. The only thing that works is a straight drag and drop from Windows to Epic. Can anyone point me in the right direction?Thanks!Kris

I have been working with the preference files in order to have the linestyles and text styles set when a user opens Isodraw. I would like to set up layers also, but I do not see a section where that can be accomplished.Has anyone created layers in the preference files? If so could you please share with me that portion of your ".PRF" file or point me in the correct direction where to look?Thanks for any and all help.Keith Howard

Adepters and Adeptites,I haven't been able to find anything about this in Help.Can somebody tell me how "Save as SGML" works in Arbortext Editor or point to some documentation that does? I have temporarily lost access to the Programmers Reference Guide so I can't look there, if there is anything there.I can get it to work with the axdocbook demo.xml file and it works pretty well. Other XML files have the menu item grayed out. I presume that the target SGML DTD/doctype is defined somewhere, but I can't find out where.The menu.cf file shows the command for the Save as SGML menu selection to be "FileSaveAsSGML" with a qualifier of "!doc_dtd_not_defined()".I presume that the target SGML DTD is defined somewhere, but again I don't know where.If all this is in the Programmer's Reference Guide then that is enough of an answer.I know that asking to "Save as SGML" today is like asking for a way to make my polio vaccine ineffective or something, but we need to be able to do this somehow.Thanks f

After using Arbortext and its predecessors on the Unix platform for the last 18+ years, we are switching to the Windows platform now that Unix will no longer be supported. I wondered if anyone else has made this transition and could offer some advice? We have a lot of customizations and I'm curious about how much work I should expect to make this transition. I would like to keep the changes to the interface and functionality to a minimum so as to not alarm our users. Any advice that anyone can offer would be very much appreciated.Regards,Rick

Hello everybody, masters and amateurs 😃Ok, so I've been working with tablecontrols in XUI, however I haven't found relevant information about their management quite easily, my current problem now is related with delete or update one element in a Table, let's say that I have the following tablecontrol:<tablecontrol columns="2" fontweight="bold" foregroundcolor="#85002A"<br"/>gridlines="false" height="200" id="table_results" resize="width"><header id="encabezado"><column id="topic" label="Topic"/"><column id="value" label="Percentage"/"></header></tablecontrol>And that i need to insert some values and then delete them, my current process in order to insert elements in the table is the following:dlgitem_insert_list_at($main::ENV['WALKING_WINDOW'],'table_results',1,"value");dlgitem_set_table_cell_at($main::ENV['WALKING_WINDOW'],'table_results',1,1,"Task");dlgitem_set_table_cell_at($main::ENV['WALKING_WINDOW'],'table_results',1,2,"20%");dlgitem

Has anyone figured out how to do this?If you haven't seen it yet, in m090 (not sure when it started, I'mupgrading from m010 to m090), there is some dynamic content provided at thetop of the view frame (below the toolbar) ... *every* view frame ... thattheoretically allows you access the eLearning and Knowledge Base content onthe PTC website.What this means is that the content you are looking for, seeking help for,is pushed lower in the frame, perhaps off the page forcing a scroll.Further, it indicates that "your administrator" installed it. Which wouldbe me. Hey, waitaminute!? I did? I don't remember choosing to do so. MaybeI did. Can I take it back?Somewhat contradicting the statement that your administrator isresponsible, Arbortext Documentation Changes states that it is "Brought toyou by PTC University." Sigh.-- Paul Nagai

Is there a way to use a tiv out of its scope? I tried to do a LEP for the entire document by using the Chapter LEPs, which uses a tiv scoped to chapter. Even if I save the tiv to a tdv, it still gets flagged as out of scope. I was wondering if there was a way to save a tiv (or "freeze" the contents) to another variable so the scope would be irrelevant. If I delete the scope, the chapter LEPs don't work correctly, and I haven't figured out how to force a reset on the tiv.

I'm currently working a problem with the IsoView plugin installed within Airbus' ADOC program. Even though I totally uninstalled and reinstalled ADOC, I'm still getting this error message whenver I attempt to view a tally sheet within the program:   "Can not find or start IsoView Server. Error -16". ADOC then locks up, and I have to shut it down.   Can anyone give me some insight into the significance of "Error -16"? ADOC is installed on Windows XP SP3 using Internet Explorer 8.

The M040 maintenance release of APP Version 11 was recently made public. This release provides the usual bug fixes and also some new functionality which will be of interest to APP users and Styler users (as APP is the default print composition engine).The key things are:PDF notesThis is provided as a technology preview. Here, you get the ability to create PDFs with annotations (sticky notes) which can be populated with content extracted from your XML (inlcuding comments if you're smart). When you create the PDF note, you get to specify the title, the author, the content, the colour of the note and the icon used. Currently the icon is one of seven which are predeifined, but I'd be interested to hear if you want more. What I like about this feature is that it allows you to add information to a PDF, such as asking a reviewer a question or including deleted content, without changing the formatting of the page by adding extra content inline.PDF layersThis is another technology preview which

Hi!This might be a stupid and simple question, but I can't seem to find the answer to it by myself. I want to insert "SUPERSEDED BY" in the IPL, but the program doesn't give me the option when I place the cursor behind the element where I want to place the markup, it doesn't give me the option to mark as supersede. I have tried behind several places in the idemdata, where I suppose that I should place it.I would really appreciate some help on this question. If somebody has a good advice on where to find answers to questions like this one in the future, I would be grateful as well.Thanks in advance!Monica

Oh, wait again...this wasn't via Adepters...never mind...duh...

Ok guys, this one is just wierd.I am using Arbortext 5.4M70. I am using DTD's and FOSI. I have a document that will not display the opening Subpara1 element tag. To be more precise it won't show any open tags until you select an element, any element and do a generate update. Then all tags appear as expected, Except the Subpara1 tag.On my preferences, I have full tags and keep tags balanced selected. Any ideas?Sindy
