ID generation

[jasowen]

I am trying to find where the auto-generation of @id can be set for specific DITA elements. For example, I want to be able to automatically generate IDs for the <table> and <fig> elements in our topics. Is there a setting for this in the Preferences dialog? I haven't been able to find it. I'm using the oXygen Editor plugin for Eclipse.
Thank you,
Jason

Hello,

Open a DITA document and in the main menu go to: DITA -> ID Generation Options. There you can set the ID pattern and add/remove and edit the element names or classes for which to automatically generate IDs.

"topic/table" is already in that list.
