Annotation View Options

An administrator can configure options for setting and viewing annotations.

Annotation viewing options can be set at any of several levels in the repository:

Globally, through a setting in the application document.
Selectively, based on custom attributes placed on the DTD used by a document.
Individually, based on custom attributes on a document-by-document basis.

Note: Settings at the individual document or DTD level override those inherited from a higher level.

The selected option defines the elements on which annotations can be set and viewed, as follows:

Option	Description
inherit	Inherit the value from the DTD or application document. Note: This option can be selected only at the DTD or document level.
has annos	Only those elements that already have annotations can be annotated.
content	Only those elements that have text data can be annotated.
all	All elements can be annotated.
none	No elements can be annotated.
include	Only those elements in the Annotation Elements list can be annotated.
exclude	Only those elements not in the Annotation Elements list can be annotated.

The last two options reference another setting, Annotation Elements. This is a list of element names from the relevant DTD, or from the application document, where you can specify a list of elements separated by the vertical bar, such as p|title|li.
