Topic numbering takes into account filtered topics

Hello,
I'm generating a PDF from a bookmap and the numbering of the topics takes into account the topics that I have filtered thanks to conditional text (profiling). Both in the TOC and in the text, I have:

2 Programming
2.1 concept ABC
2.3 concept DEF

In my map there is a topic between the concept ABC and the concept DEF that I have filtered out. So I'd like my numbering to be:

2 Programming
2.1 concept ABC
2.2 concept DEF

Is it a known issue? Is there something I'm missing? I'm not sure if it's an issue at the OT level or if it's "just" a customization issue at the XSL FO level?
I've tried to find similar questions in forums to no avail.
Any help will be appreciated!

Annette

Hello,

No, it is not a knows issue. Filtering is applied in a separate step before generating the final PDF output. The last step, that creates the output PDF file, does not even see the topics that were filtered in a previous step, so the wrong numbers cannot be caused by taking into account any filtered topics.

Please send us a set of sample files for reproducing the problem: a sample DITA map file that sets profiling attributes on some topics, the included DITA topic files, and the DITAVAL file that you set in the DITA PDF transformation for topic filtering.
