Creating and Editing Profiling Attributes in DITA

You can filter DITA content or the structure of a document by using profiling attributes or profiling conditions sets.

Defining Profiling Attributes for DITA Content

To create or edit profiling attributes for filtering DITA content, follow these steps:
  1. Tip:
    For less technical users who do not want to create attribute specializations in DTD/XML Schema, you may want to use profiling attribute groups instead (use an existing profiling attribute with sub-attributes).
  2. and go to Editor > Edit modes > Author > Profiling / Conditional Text > Attributes and Condition Sets.
    Information:
    The Profiling Attributes section is used to define the attributes and their values. For DITA documents, the default attributes are included (@audience, @platform, @product, @props, @otherprops, and @rev), but if a Subject Scheme Map is used for profiling your content, you will see the attributes defined in your subject scheme map instead.

  3. Attribute Values Table

    This table displays information about the values for the profiling attribute. You can configure them by using the buttons at the bottom of the table (NewNew, Edit, Delete).

    The columns are as follows:

Result: You should see your changes in the Profiling Attribute table.

You can also use the Profiling Condition Sets section to apply more complex filters on your DITA content.
