Hi Hussein, Thanks for response and a good hint to deal with map vs topic.

Fixing that made both maps behave correctly. In principle, there is no need to specify the class attribute by hand. If your DITA file references a schema of any kind: DTD or W3C XML Schema (even RELAX NG as of ditac v2.6.0), the class attribute is automatically given its default value, this default value being specified in the schema. > > You say that map/topicmeta does not propagate across nested topicrefs, > I have tested now with versions 2.5.1 and 2.5.6 (haven't yet > downloaded the latest), both propagate now the map metadata correctly > to topics. Did I misunderstood something in your response ..;) No. I made some tests using version 2.6.0 and it did not work as expected. May be it's a regression. Please allow me a couple of days to investigate on this and I'll get back to you after doing this. > > We have pretty complicated metadata model to control various things in the > application.

Something like this in the map could work too. <topicref ... <topicmeta> <data name="from-map" value="yes"/> </topicmeta> > Or something from lists file? > No, there is nothing which could help you in the ditac_lists.ditac_list file.
