Question

Feature request for DITA options

I am working with DITA template design right now and I am constantly annoyed by the design of the PDF Publish dialogue for DITA. So here is my suggestion

https://tracker.adobe.com/#/view/FRMAKER-12699

  1. Make the Publish dialogue window scalable so you don't have to scroll in order to see all templates
  2. Make the dialogue showing the template file name large enough that it does not truncate the name.
  3. Substitute the "name box" with a proper window showing the entire url so it is transparant which file is being used for which template.

Please vote if you like 🙂

    My suggestion is to make these settings configurable in an XML format, similar to how structured applications use a structapps.fm file. This whole zip/ini setup is horrible and is probably there to accomodate unstructured users. But at least for DITA, all of these settings should be XML-based.
