Reply to: Searching .dita files using the "Find in Files" feature
June 6, 2012 at 4:55 pmHi Derek,
Thank you for this reply; it was very helpful.
I found that after a fresh installation of XMetaL 7.0, the “Find in Files” feature only searches .xml, .sgm., and .sgml files when looking into folders. To let it also search .dita and .ditamap files, the following steps must be executed at least once:
1. Display the Macros toolbar.
2. Run the macro named “XMetaL Configuration: About Services”.
3. In the dialog that appears, select Multiple-File Operation Service.
4. On the right side of the same dialog, click Extended Info.
5. Click OK.
6. Click Done.
7. Restart XMetaL 7.0.
Now XMetaL will also search .dita and .ditamap files when looking into folders.
