DITA Maps Manager

DITA maps are key components for authoring DITA content. Managing these files and their referenced topics is an important feature for a DITA editor.

The DITA Maps Manager in Oxygen allows you to view and edit DITA map files. It also acts as a type of project manager application, allowing you to easily open and manage topics, tasks, and concepts. The DITA Maps Manager is displayed each time you open a .ditamap file in Oxygen and it will appear as a tab in the same panel as the Project view. Double-clicking a file reference that is listed in a DITA map, opens that file in the editor.

When working with large projects and multiple DITA map files, you can easily find resources by using the Open/Find Resource dialog box.

The selection in the DITA Maps Manager is synchronized with the currently edited topic This makes it easy to identify the parent or siblings of the current topic.
