Author support for keys defined in Subject Scheme map

Post by Frank Ralf »

Hi,

We have defined iiRDS metadata in a DITA Subject Scheme map like so:

Code: Select all

<subjectdef keys="iirds.DocumentType.Subject">
        <topicmeta>
            <navtitle>Document type (Subject)</navtitle>
            <shortdesc>Type of document describing the information product</shortdesc>
            <resourceid appid="http://iirds.tekom.de/iirds#DocumentType" appname="class-iri" />
        </topicmeta>
 </subjectdef>
Unfortunately, there is only limited author support when inserting such a definition like so:

Code: Select all

<data keyref="iirds.DocumentType.Subject" />

The keys are picked up correctly but there are no suggestions when entering a keyref value. This does work with a usual key definition like so:

Code: Select all

<keydef keys="iirds.DocumentType.Key">
        <topicmeta>
            <navtitle>Document type (Key)</navtitle>
            <shortdesc>Type of document describing the information product</shortdesc>
            <resourceid appid="http://iirds.tekom.de/iirds#DocumentType" appname="class-iri" />
        </topicmeta>
 </keydef>
Given that both <keydef> and <subjectdef> are derived from <topicref>, it would be nice if Oxygen behaved similar for both kinds of definition.

Best regards,
Frank

Hi Frank,

Thanks for the request, I added an internal issue based on it:

EXM-57377 Subject defs are not proposed as values when inserting keyrefs

We'll update this forum thread if we make any improvement on this in a future version.

Regards,
Radu
