A skin is a collection of CSS properties that can alter the look of the output by changing colors, font types, borders, margins, and paddings. This allows you to rapidly adapt the look and feel of the output for your organization.
Oxygen XML Editor provides a set of predefined skins for the DITA Map WebHelp and DITA Map WebHelp with Feedback transformation scenarios.
The predefined skins cover a wide range of chromatic themes, ranging from a very light one to a high-contrast variant. By default, the Oxygen skin is selected (notice the light blue border around the skin preview). If you want to obtain an output without any customization, deselect the currently selected skin.
To see how the skin looks when applied on a sample documentation project that is
stored on the Oxygen XML Editor website, press the Online preview
link.
To further customize the look of the output, set the CSS File field to
point to your custom CSS stylesheet or to a customized skin.
Note: A custom CSS file will
overwrite a skin selection.
Note: The output can also be styled by setting the
args.css parameter in the Parameters tab. The
properties taken from the stylesheet referenced in this parameter take precedence over the
properties declared in the skin set in the Skins tab.
