From your screenshot, we see that you are using a quite old version of XXE. Excerpts from "Support policy", https://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/support_policy.html --- We support only the last major version of the software. --- As a proof of our good will, we'll answer your question, but unless you upgrade, this will be the last time we do so. ================================================================================= On 07/19/2019 03:44 PM, Darryl Young wrote: > Please take a look at the names on the 2 file tabs in the attached > screen shot. > > This shot was taken using connected XXE, where the following situation > applies: > - The first tab on the left is for a file that was launched from XDocs > Explorer, and you will note that the name displayed has our internal > resource > lineage-branch-language ID form "oil_xi456_1_1.xml". > - The second tab is for a file that was opened by browsing the CMS > repository from within XXE (where the branch and language have already > been set at login time), > and the name displayed is simply "paint.xml". > > When launching from Explorer, it is currently necessary to pass an ID > that contains the branch and language of the file being launched into > XXE because it may be an initial launch when XXE is closed, > and I need a way to set the branch and language (using the current design). > > *Here is my question...* > *Is there any way for me to programmatically affect the name that is > displayed on the file tab after the file URI is passed to the > doConnect(URI uri, int timeoutMillis) method of my "Drive" class,* > *or does XXE simply remember this URI and take the name from there, with > no way of altering the name? * > A document tab displays: com.xmlmind.xmleditapp.kit.OpenedDocument.getName(). See https://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/api/com/xmlmind/xmleditapp/kit/OpenedDocument.html#getName-- The default name indeed comes from the URI passed to com.xmlmind.xmleditapp.kit.OpenedDocument.open() and newFromTemplate(). Therefore you must use com.xmlmind.xmleditapp.kit.OpenedDocument.setName(String) to specify an alternate name. See https://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/api/com/xmlmind/xmleditapp/kit/OpenedDocument.html#setName-java.lang.String- While at it, you'll also want to use: - OpenedDocument.setShortLabel(String). See https://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/api/com/xmlmind/xmleditapp/kit/OpenedDocument.html#setShortLabel-java.lang.String- - OpenedDocument.setLabel(String). See https://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/api/com/xmlmind/xmleditapp/kit/OpenedDocument.html#setLabel-java.lang.String- But when and where this can be done? The answer is: in ancom.xmlmind.xmleditapp.kit.OpenedDocumentHook you have registered with XXE. See https://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/api/com/xmlmind/xmleditapp/kit/OpenedDocumentHook.html Sample customize.xxe_gui registering "com.bluestream.xxe.MyHook" with XXE: --- <gui xmlns="http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/schema/gui"; xmlns:gui="http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/schema/gui";> <openedDocumentHook name="myHook"> <class>com.bluestream.xxe.MyHook</class> </openedDocumentHook> <layout> <hidden> <insert /> <openedDocumentHook name="myHook" /> </hidden> </layout> </gui> --- More info in "XMLmind XML Editor - Customizing the User Interface", https://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/gui/index.html -- XMLmind XML Editor Support List xmleditor-support@xmlmind.com https://www.xmlmind.com/mailman/listinfo/xmleditor-support
