Previewing content by specifying applicability filtering from the editor

When previewing the contents of an Issue 3.0 or later data module in S1000D LiveContent Preview, you can filter the contents of that data module based on applicability. You can set conditions appropriate to the situation and validate applicability settings and the corresponding content in S1000D LiveContent Preview.

About this task

Procedure

  1. In the editor, do one of the following.
    • In Arbortext Editor, select Contenta > Preview.
    • In Oxygen XML Author, select the Contenta S1000D tool bar Preview icon ().
    The data module appears in the S1000D LiveContent Preview browser window.
  2. Under Current Applicability Shown, click the plus sign (+) to display and change the applicability settings for the data module.
  3. If you have changed any applicability values, click Set Applicability to update S1000D LiveContent Preview to show the changed applicability settings.

Results

S1000D LiveContent Preview shows only the content that matches the applicability settings that you applied, and indicates content that is filtered out using a gray message box. You can experiment with different conditions.

If an illustration or multimedia object is not displayed due to applicability filtering, a message of this format appears:
