Question about Advanced settings of the Embedded content processor

Hello,

Having a look to the SDL doc I found that.

It seems that in the Advanced settings of the Embedded content processor, we can specify how tags are displayed.

For example, there is an option for text equivalencies: 

Tags represents the text

Placeholder (standalone) tags only.

A tag can have a text equivalent. For example, the entity tag " has the text equivalent ".

I tried to add the á as a placeholder and told in Advanced settings that this Text is equivalent to the character á, but nothing happened. SDL filters á correctly, but it does nothing with the character á.  

I am not sure to understand well the purpose of this option and how it works.

Could somebody please help me to understand it with an example.

Thank you in advance,

Best regards,

Javier

  • Hi Javier,

    I think it means that when you toggle the Tag display, probably to full text mode, you should be able to read the text replacement you added. However, I tested this with Excel and with the XML filetype, then checked back as far as Studio 2011 for XML but it does not behave this way in any of these versions.

    I don't want to say this is a bug yet as it might be I'm misunderstanding the purpose of this, but I think that if it's not a bug then the help needs to be finetuned a little to make this more clear.

    I'll bring this to the attention of the filetype developer tomorrow and see whether he can verify how this is supposed to work.

    Regards
