[oXygen-user] Follow Up: Automatically add @type when a topicref is added to a DITA map (Oxygen XML Editor Support)

[Scott Barney]

Hello:

I've followed the thread about having the "type" attribute automatically
populated by oXygen when a topicref is added - to include the discussions on
whether it is the right thing to do from a theory perspective, how to check
after the fact, and so on. 

My situation: 
- I have writers that are not full-time writers. They would like "type",
"scope", and "format" to be auto-populated when they add a topicref or href.
- If we don't add these, our transform process reports it as a warning or
error. We are not allowed any warnings or errors in the transform log.
- We have no control over the transform process. We have to use the tool
as-is.

Which leads me back to the original question: Can we set up oXygen such that
when a topicref or href is added, we can get these attributes to
auto-populate?
If not now, is it a feature request? I half-expected it to be under
Preferences >> Content Completion.

Thanks,

Scott
