[oXygen-user] Generating IDs on DITA maps

[Oxygen XML Editor Support (Radu Coravu)]

Hi Mark,

You could try to edit the new file template used to create DTD-based 
DITA Maps:

> OXYGEN_INSTALL_DIR\frameworks\dita\templates\map\Map.ditamap

and set the ID attribute to use the Oxygen-specific "${id}" editor 
variable which is expanded when the new file template is used, something 
like:

> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
> <!DOCTYPE map PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DITA Map//EN" "map.dtd">
> <map id="map_${id}">
>  <title>DITA Topic Map</title>
> </map>

We do not have a way for batch generation of IDs. What is your use case? 
IDs set on a map root element are not that useful in general.

Regards,
Radu
