Apply Profiling Attributes

Profiling attributes are applied on element nodes. You can apply profiling attributes on a text fragment, on a single element, or on multiple elements in the same time. If there is no selection in your document, the profiling attributes are applied on the element at the cursor position.

To profile a fragment from your document, select the fragment in the Author editing mode and follow these steps:
  1. Invoke the Edit Profiling Attributes action from the contextual menu in Author mode.
    Step Result: The Edit Profiling Attributes dialog box is displayed and shows all the profiling attributes and their values, as defined for the particular document type (framework).

  2. In the Edit Profiling Attributes dialog box, select the checkboxes that correspond to the attribute values you want to apply on the document fragment.
  3. Click OK to finish the profiling configuration.

    Result: The attributes and attributes values selected in the Edit Profiling Attributes dialog box are set on the elements contained in the profiled fragment. If you only select a fragment of content (rather than the entire element), this fragment is wrapped in phrase-type elements in which the profiling attributes are set.

    If the Show Profiling Attributes option (available in the Profiling / Conditional Text toolbar menu) is enabled, a light green border is painted around profiled text, in the Author mode. Also, all profiling attributes set on the current element are listed at the end of the highlighted block and in its tooltip message. To edit the attributes of a profiled fragment, click one of the listed attribute values. A form control pops up and allows you to add or remove attribute values.
