Specifying item filtering for a child type (Publisher)
1. In the Document Structure pane, select the child type.
2. In the Properties pane, select the Filter entry.
3. In the value cell, click the arrow button.
Publisher opens a dialog that allows you to specify item filtering.
4. If you want to filter child types through a Private property, select the Private check box.
5. If you want to filter child types through a Tag Definition, select the Tag Definitions check box.
6. In the list of properties and Tag Definitions, select the property or Tag Definition through which you want to filter child types.
7. If you want to ignore the type of the child type so that the filter settings you specify apply to all items that are extracted through the parent child role (not only those items whose type matches that of the child type), then clear the Apply Type Filter check box.
8. In the Condition list that shows Match by default, select the condition through which you want to filter child types.
For properties and Tag Definitions that are strings, you can select the following conditions:
Match - the value of the selected property must match the specified value (case insensitive).
MatchCase - the value of the selected property must match the specified value (case sensitive).
Contains - the value of the selected property must include the specified value (case insensitive).
ContainsCase -the value of the selected property must include the specified value (case sensitive).
BeginsWith- the value of the selected property must begin with the specified value (case insensitive).
BeginsWithCase- the value of the selected property must begin with the specified value (case sensitive).
EndsWith - the value of the selected property must begin with the specified value (case insensitive).
EndsWithCase - the value of the selected property must end with the specified value (case sensitive).
For properties and Tag Definitions that are numeric (Publisher converts string values to numeric values), you can select the following conditions:
Equal- the value of the selected property must equal the specified value.
DoesNotEqual- the value of the selected property must not equal the specified value.
LessThan - the value of the selected property must be less than the specified value.
LessThanEqual - the value of the selected property must be less than or equal to the specified value.
GreaterThan - the value of the selected property must be greater than the specified value.
GreaterThanEqual - the value of the selected property must be greater than or equal to the specified value.
9. In the Value box, specify the value against which the values of item properties will be tested.
10. Click OK.
