NoteCollection.BeginUpdateSeparator(NoteSeparatorType) Method

Opens the specified separator for editing.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraRichEdit.API.Native

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

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

Declaration

SubDocument BeginUpdateSeparator(
    NoteSeparatorType type
)

Parameters

Name Type Description
type NoteSeparatorType

A separator type

Returns

Type Description
SubDocument

An object that contains the separator content.

Remarks

Use the NoteCollection.BeginUpdateSeparator - NoteCollection.EndUpdateSeparator paired methods to update one of the note separators (separator, continuation separator, or continuation notice).

If the document does not contain the specified separator, the NoteCollection.BeginUpdateSeparator method call creates a new separator. Call the NoteCollection.HasSeparator method to determine whether notes already have a specified separator type.

The code sample below shows how to change the footnote separator:

RichEditDocumentServer wordProcessor = new RichEditDocumentServer();
wordProcessor.LoadDocument("Documents//Grimm.docx");
Document document = wordProcessor.Document;
if (document.Footnotes.HasSeparator(NoteSeparatorType.Separator))
{
    SubDocument noteSeparator = document.Footnotes.BeginUpdateSeparator(NoteSeparatorType.Separator);
    noteSeparator.Delete(noteSeparator.Range);
    noteSeparator.AppendText("***");
    document.Footnotes.EndUpdateSeparator(noteSeparator);
}
