brian kennedySubject: XSLT WYSIWYG Fixes
Author: brian kennedy
Date: 21 Feb 2006 04:37 PM
Hello:

1)Selecting a table in a WYSIWYG and right-clicking to cut will remove the table but not allow it to paste.

2)Insert Rows feature from the WYSIWYG menu will only insert one row above your present row, no matter what values supply.

3)Insert columns does not work often

4)Merge Cells will only work if both cells have some text inside it. I have had to enter several spaces into a cell and right click it in certain ways to have the merge-cells option enabled from the menu.

5)On atleast one occasion I made changes to an xslt, was prompted as to whether or not I wished to save, clicked no, but the changes were saved anyways.


*this was ran on a win2k machine with the latest service updates*
(more to come)

Hi, Brian. Can you tell us what version/build of Stylus Studio you are using (Help > About Stylus Studio)?

Thanks.

Thanks, Brian. I was able to verify several of the behaviors you observed. We'll work on fixes for an update release.

Thanks again.

Brian,
we are in the process of a complete redesign of the WYSIWYG component; so we are very interested in hearing feedback about the existing module.

As you can imagine, we are aware of issues with the current implementation, in most cases caused by the unpredictability of the Internet Explorer editing component on which the existing module is based. But understanding better what you are trying to do, what you can't do with the existing implementation and what you would like to do more easily, that's very important information for us.

So, feel free to either post any additional finding or suggestion here (this same thread is fine); or if you can also email us at stylus-field-report@progress.com if you find that more convenient.

Thanks for your help,
Minollo

if you could do away with writing a .BAK file to the hard disk for every style sheet you open in stylus studio that'd be great. It is often the case that you click save changes and the changes are saved to the .bak and not the .xsl until you close the program (which then saves to the xsl). However the .BAK file always exists and that's kind of annoying.

Also sometimes when you go to create the HTML file for viewing in the preview window, sometimes if stylus studio doesn't like what you've done (i think it may have to do with indentation or illegal attribute values) instead of alerting you of the problem it simply erases the code and all of your work is lost because of a few bad key strokes. (that stinks)

Hi, Brian. You can turn off the creation of backup files on save (click Tools > Options > Application Settings). That said, the .bak file is always a copy of the latest version of the saved file. You shouldn't be seeing anything other than this.

And, yes, invalid changes (that is, changes that are not recognized by Internet Explorer) made on the WYSIWYG tab are flushed. As noted in a previous post, this is one of the reasons we are moving from the IE component in the WYSIWYG redesign.

Hope this helps.

The current XML-to-HTML XSLT component doesn't support XSLT 2.0; WYSIWYG support for XSLT 2.0 and XQuery 1.0 will appear in a release available later this year.

Thanks,
Minollo

Yeah but when i edit the code from version 2.0 to version 1.0 all my work is temporarily erased. Then when i close the file without saving, reopen it, change from version 2.0 to 1.0 again, it works fine.

Yes, Stylus Studio should prevent you from switching to WYSIWYG altogether in those cases; it does that in the Stylus Studio 2006 version I've tried.

What version are you running? (Help > About)

Thanks,
Minollo

>I am using Stylus Studio

It prevents me from switching while the tag reads
<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0">
And brings me back to the XSLT editor.
Then i edit the tag to read
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0">
and click WYSIWYG tag and it allows me to switch.

However it clears the file.
But if you close out, and repeat the steps a second time it allows you to switch and keeps the file in tact.

Hm... I can't reproduce that behavior. Any chance you can attache or email (stylus-field-report@progress.com) the XSLT+XML files you are using?

Thanks,
Minollo
