Output Only Conditioned Text

Post by rjn572 »

I have a large software user manual that outputs to two versions, for example Manual A and Manual B.
The conditions applied are;
ManualAOnly
ManualBOnly

Most of the conditions are applied to paragraphs within topics.
The majority of the content (95%) is left as default, unconditioned.

Is there a way to only output the ManualA/ManualB content and ignore the unconditioned (default) content?

Nope - the target's conditional text options can only be used to control things marked with a condition.

What are you actually trying to achieve though?
For example, if it's just to highlight conditional paragraphs in the output, then try this: http://forums.madcapsoftware.com/viewto ... 12&t=19801

As Dave says...

Analyzer has the ability to produce condition based reports. Depending on your report options it will create a list of tags within each topic that have conditions applied.
