Authoring eXperience with oXygen (AX)

Samples showing samples for controlling the Authoring eXperience with oXygen

Using Tabs

The tabs folder contains a sample showing how one can use tabs. We use a LESS library to implement support for tabs, and then in the main LESS file we can declaratively mention that we want tabs for a specific element like

.tabs (
    selector1, selector2, ... selectorN;
    label1, label2, ...       labelN;    
)

or, if we want all the other elements not selected by the specified selectors to be available in a last tab, we can use

.tabsWithOthers (
    selector1, selector2, ... selectorN;
    label1, label2, ...       labelN;
    labelForLastTab    
)

So, basically, in order to create 4 tabs for a DITA task for the content of a taskbody element, one containing the content of the prereq element labeled Pre-requisites another the content of context labeled Context, the 3rd tab containing the content of steps labled Steps and a last tab containing all the other elements labeld More.... we can use something like:

taskbody{
    .tabsWithOthers(
        prereq, context, steps;
        Pre-requisites, Context, Steps;
        'More...'
    );
}

If we have a div element containing code samples in codeblock elements for different languages, marked with the outputclass attribute, then in order to create 3 tabs to show Java, CPP and XML blocks, we can use something like:

div{
    .tabs(
        "codeblock[outputclass~='language-java']", 
        "codeblock[outputclass~='language-cpp']", 
        "codeblock[outputclass~='language-xml']";
        Java, CPP, XML;
    );
}

Here it is the how the sample DITA task file (tabs/samples/task.dita) is rendered in the oXygen XML Author mode tabs/sample/task.png

or you can try it live in the oXygen XML Web Author with the tabs described above, specified in the tabs/css/task.less file: task.dita.
