16.2.1.4 Specifying a title for a chapter or book ditamap

For the <title> element of a chapter map, by default Mif2Go uses the FrameMaker chapter title.

Arbitrary chapter map title

To specify a different title for a chapter map, include the following setting in a chapter-specific configuration file named for the FrameMaker file (see §33.1.1 Providing configuration files for individual chapters):

[DITAOptions]

; MapTitle = content of <title> element for chapter map

MapTitle = This is the title of the current chapter map

When you provide a value for MapTitle, Mif2Go sets a <title> element at the start of the chapter map (effectively at map level 0); the value assigned to MapTitle becomes the content of the element.

Alternatively, you can insert a DITAMapTitle marker in the FrameMaker chapter file. The content of the marker becomes the content of the <title> element for the map generated from that file, overriding any value specified for MapTitle.

First topic title as chapter map title

To use the title of the first topic as the chapter map title:

[DITAOptions]

; UseAltMapTitle = No (default) or Yes (if no title specified for map,

; use the navtitle of the first topic in the file as the map title)

UseAltMapTitle = Yes

When UseAltMapTitle=Yes, the alternate title overrides the value of MapTitle.

Book map title

To specify a title for the book map that is generated from a FrameMaker book file, in your project configuration file:

[DITAOptions]

; BookMapTitle = content of <title> element for book map.

BookMapTitle = This is the title of the book map

You cannot use a marker to override the title for a book map file.
