Filters Tab (DITA Transformations)

When you create a new transformation scenario or edit an existing one, a configuration dialog box is displayed that allows you to customize the transformation with various options in several tabs.

The Filters tab allows you to add filters to remove certain content elements from the generated output.

You can choose one of the following options to define filters:

Use DITAVAL file: If you already have a DITAVAL file associated with the DITA map, you can specify the file to be used when filtering content. You can specify the path by using the text field, its history drop-down, the Insert Editor Variables button, or the browsing actions in the Browse drop-down list. You can find out more about constructing a DITAVAL file in the DITA Documentation.
Note: If a filter file is specified in the args.filter parameter (in the Parameters tab), the filters are combined (neither file takes precedence over the other).
Exclude from output all elements with any of the following attributes: By using the New, Edit, or Delete buttons at the bottom of the pane, you can configure a list of attributes (name and value) to exclude all elements that contain any of these attributes from the output.
