RE: DITA Editor

["Lisa Hickling" <Lisa -dot- Hickling -at- realsuitesoftware -dot- com>]

Hi Tim,

I just happen to be evaluating Serna as well. I find that I'm having the
same problem. Say I have...

<task id="thisHereTask">
  <title>Task Title Here</title>
  <prolog/>
  <taskbody>
    <context>This is the context of the task.</context>*
  </taskbody>
</task>

Take the asterisk as my cursor. I can't get Serna/Authentic to list the
next logical sets of elements (prereq, steps, postreq, etc) for taskbody
at that point. I see options to insert another task, various cosmetic
tags, and even concepts/reference tags. 

I'm sure I'm doing something wrong (I'm getting the same challenge from
both apps) but what is it?

Thanks,

Lisa H.

Going through a similar exercise.  Have a look at the Serna editor from
Syntext:

http://www.syntext.com

It's highly configurable, WYSIWYG and supports DITA.  Also it's more
user-friendly out-of-the-box than the Altova product.
