ContentControlRepeatingSection Interface

Repeating section content control.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraRichEdit.API.Native

Assembly: DevExpress.RichEdit.v24.1.Core.dll

NuGet Packages: DevExpress.RichEdit.Core, DevExpress.Win.Navigation

Declaration

public interface ContentControlRepeatingSection :
    ContentControlBase

Remarks

Note

The ContentControlCollection does not contain methods to create a repeating section content control in code.

The SubDocument.ContentControls property returns all content controls in a document. Use the ContentControlBase.ControlType property to determine the content control type.

The code sample below retrieves all building block galleries in a document:

using DevExpress.XtraRichEdit;
using DevExpress.XtraRichEdit.API.Native;

using (var wordProcessor = new RichEditDocumentServer()) {

    wordProcessor.LoadDocument("Content Controls.docx");
    Document document = wordProcessor.Document;
    var contentControls = document.ContentControls;
    var firstParagraph = document.Paragraphs[0];
    for (var i = 0; i < contentControls.Count; i++)
    {
        if (firstParagraph.Range.Contains(contentControls[i].Range.Start) && contentControls[i].ControlType == ContentControlType.RepeatingSection)
        {
            ContentControlRepeatingSection repeatingSection = (ContentControlRepeatingSection)contentControls[i];
            repeatingSection.Color = Color.Crimson;
            break;
        }
        wordProcessor.SaveDocument("Content Controls.docx", DocumentFormat.OpenXml);
    }
}

The ContentControlCollection.Remove method allows you to remove specific content control. You can also specify whether to keep control’s contents when the controls is removed.

The code sample below removes all building block galleries from the document:

using DevExpress.XtraRichEdit;
using DevExpress.XtraRichEdit.API.Native;

using (var wordProcessor = new RichEditDocumentServer()) {
    Document document = wordProcessor.Document;
    var contentControls = document.ContentControls;

    for (var i = 0; i < contentControls.Count; i++)
    {
        if (contentControls[i].ControlType == ContentControlType.RepeatingSection)
        {
            contentControls.Remove(contentControls[i], true);
        }
    }
}
