JATS Author Mode Actions

JATS Toolbar Actions

The following default actions are readily available on the JATS (Author Custom Actions) toolbar when editing in Author mode (by default, they are also available in the JATS menu and in various submenus of the contextual menu):

Inserts a fig element with a title (inside a caption element). This action opens a dialog box that allows you to enter the text for the title for the figure.

Graphic Figure

Surrounds the selected text with a bold tag. You can use this action on multiple non-contiguous selections.

JATS Menu Actions

In addition, the following default actions are available in the JATS menu when editing in Author mode:

JATS Drag/Drop Actions

Dragging a file from the view or DITA Maps Manager view and dropping it into a JATS document that is edited in Author mode, creates a link to the dragged file (the ext-link element with the xlink:href attribute) at the drop location. Dragging an image file from the default file system application (Windows Explorer on Windows or Finder on Mac OS X, for example) and dropping it into a JATS document inserts an image element (the inline-graphic element with the xlink:href attribute) at the drop location, similar to the Insert Image toolbar action.
