Set Format of Applicability Expressions
Inline applicability settings are defined by expression. You can choose the format of the constructs in expressions:
Construct Type
Format
Symbols
set inlineapplicabilityui=symbols
• Not — !
• And — &&
• Or — ||
Words (default)
set inlineapplicabilityui=words
• Not — NOT
• And — AND
• Or — OR
Words — Exclude instead of Not
set inlineapplicabilityui=wordsexclude
• Not — EXC
• And — AND
• Or — OR
To configure the format of expressions, use the set inlineapplicabilityui set option as a command or as an advanced preference.
For more information, see set inlineapplicabilityui in the Arbortext Command Language Reference PDF.
The expression format you choose is only used when you are creating expressions in the applicability interface. The value passed to the relevant applicability attribute in the XML file will be set according to the applicability syntax that is in place for the Arbortext Editor environment.

Expressions written with a different format construct will be ignored during validation and publishing.
