Re: Oxygen Author: How to limit the number of attributes pro

Hi Elaine,

Sorry, we do not have a similar feature for filtering attributes based on user-defined rules. But we'll consider this for a future version.
We have a Java API extension which could be used to achieve this but you would need a Java developer to implement an extension.

Regards,
Radu

Re: table and border

Hi,

By default the DITA specification states that if the table does not have border information set to it, it should consider that the border should be shown.
So you should set the @frame attribute to none.

Code: Select all

<table frame="none">
