15.4.6 Assigning attributes to DITA elements

You can apply attributes to a DITA block or inline element by assigning attribute="value" pairs to the FrameMaker format mapped to the element. The attributes you assign with configuration settings apply to all instances of the element in question. Only those attributes assigned to elements mapped from paragraph formats can be overridden with markers.

The following are special cases:

A value for the id attribute can be assigned only with a DITAElemID marker.

Attributes of <xref> elements require different settings; see §15.10 Configuring cross references and links for DITA.

The outputclass attribute can be assigned to the root element only with a DITATopicOutputclass marker.
