Certain elements cascade from map to map, although some of the attributes that cascade within a map do not cascade from map to map.

, @platform
, @product
,
@otherprops
, @rev
@props
and any attribute specialized from @props
@linking
, @toc
, @print

@search
@type
@translate
@processing-role
@cascade
@format
@format
attribute must be set to "ditamap" in order to reference a
map or a branch of a map, so it cannot cascade through to the referenced map.@xml:lang
and @dir
@xml:lang
is defined in The xml:lang attribute. The @dir
attribute work the same way.@scope
@scope
attribute describes the map itself, rather
than the content. When the @scope
attribute is set to "external", it
indicates that the referenced map itself is external and unavailable, so the value
cannot cascade into that referenced map.The @class
attribute is used to determine the processing roles that cascade
from map to map. See Cascading of roles from map to map for more
information.
As with values that cascade within a map, the cascading is additive if the attribute permits
multiple values (such as @audience
). When the attribute only permits one
value, the cascading value overrides the top-level element.
<map> <topicref href="a.ditamap" format="ditamap" toc="no"/> <mapref href="b.ditamap" audience="developer"/> <topicref href="c.ditamap#branch1" format="ditamap" print="no"/> <mapref href="c.ditamap#branch2" platform="myPlatform"/> </map>
<map>
element. This means that the topics
that are referenced by a.ditamap do not appear in the navigation
generated by test.ditamap (except for branches within the map that
explicitly set toc="yes").<map>
element. If the @audience
attribute is already set on the root
<map>
element within b.ditamap, the value
"developer" is added to any existing values.@platform
attribute is already
specified on the element with id="branch", the value "myPlatform" is
added to existing values.Return to main page.
