Re: [docbook-apps] profiling=hiding?

How are you doing the profiling, Cheri?

You need to set the condition to what you want to show up -- any other
setting for that condition (including no setting at all) makes it
disappear during the profiling phase.

For example, if you have the following code:
<sect1 condition="internal">
  <title>Awesome title goes here</title>
  ...
</sect1>

Then setting condition to "internal" will keep it in the document;
setting it to "external", "fred", or anything else will exclude it
from the document. Don't forget to process the profiled version using
either Single-pass or Two-pass processing.
