Profiling / Conditional Text Preferences

Oxygen XML Editor lets you configure how profiling and conditional text is displayed in Author mode. It has built in support for the standard conditional text features of DITA and DocBook, which you can customize for your own projects. You can also add conditional support for other XML vocabularies, including your custom vocabularies.

To configure Profiling/Conditional Text options, open the Preferences dialog box and go to Editor > Edit modes > Author > Profiling/Conditional Text.

Note: Note the following when configuring this setting:

This setting is used to define how profiled elements are treated in Author mode. It does not create profiling or conditional text attributes or values in the underlying XML vocabulary. It just changes how the editor displays them.
This setting should be used for profiling / conditional text elements only. To change how other types of attributes are displayed in the text, use a CSS style sheet.
If you are using the DITA XML vocabulary and a DITA Subject Scheme Map is defined in the root map of your document, it will be used in place of anything defined using this dialog box.

This preferences page contains the following options:

Import from DITAVAL - This button allows you to import profiling attributes from .ditaval files. You can merge these new profiling attributes with the existing ones, or replace them completely. If the imported attributes conflict with the existing ones, Oxygen XML Editor displays a dialog box that contains two tables. The first one previews the imported attributes and the second one previews the already defined attributes. You can choose to either keep the existing attributes or replace them with the imported ones.
Note: When importing profiling attributes from DITAVAL files, Oxygen XML Editor automatically creates condition sets based on these files.
Profiling Attributes section - Allows you to specify a set of allowable value for each profiling or conditional attribute. You can use the New button at the bottom of the table to add profiling attributes, the Edit button to edit existing ones, or the Delete button to delete entries from the table. Use the Up and Down buttons to change the priority of the entries. If you have multiple entries with identical names that match the same document type, Oxygen XML Editor uses the one that is positioned highest in the table.
Profiling Condition Sets section - Allows you to specify a specific set of profiling attributes to be used to specify a particular build configuration for your content. You can use the New button at the bottom of the table to add condition sets, the Edit button to edit existing ones, or the Delete button to delete entries from the table. Use the Up and Down buttons to change the priority of the entries. If you have multiple entries with identical names that match the same document type, Oxygen XML Editor uses the one that is positioned highest in the table.
