Out of Notes Part 4: Linked Collections

Wed 17 Jul 2013, 02:49 PM



by Ben Langhinrichs
This is the fourth in my series, Out Of Notes (see Part 1 - The ChallengePart 2 - Capsule Views, and Part 3 - ePublish from XPages), which shows how the Midas Rich Text LSX can be used to take data out of Notes either temporarily or permanently. In this part, I show how collections which we use to ePublish or export may include both the documents we select directly and those linked from those documents with doclinks. This makes it very easy to create a working snapshot in EPUB or another format where the doclinks continue to work but point to the other documents included. EPUB is the most widely accepted eBook format, and qualifies as a Capsule View, though it is not as limited as other Capsule Views. In a very short video, I demonstrate how easy this can be with Midas V5. More information and the script used are at http://mini-lessons.info/Midas11 
 
Note: Accurate closed captions have been provided, and if English is not your first language, you might want to turn on the auto-translate. I also advise turning on HD and watching full screen so the captions show under the video.
