Add Section

The following procedure shows how to include a Section in a Content Wizard. A section is a group of Text Blocks categorized based on certain criteria.

A Section can contain the following items:

  1. In the document structure, select the item to add a Section to.
    Sections can be added to the root of a Content Wizard, a Section Selection group, a Data Backbone item, or another Section.
  2. On the toolbar, click Add item > Section.
  3. Enter a title for the Section and click Add item.
    The new item appears in the structure of the Content Wizard, and a new window opens. You can adjust the position of the Section by clicking the arrows located on the toolbar.
  4. Under Behavior, you can adjust various properties of a Section, such as make it optional or mandatory.
    • Optional means that this Section will be optional at runtime, so the user can choose to select it or omit it.
      • Under Display, specify the question to display next to this check box that enables the user to include or exclude this Section.
    • Default Selected means that this Section will be included in the document by default, but the user can exclude it (uncheck it) as it is optional.
  5. Under QForm Reference, you can select a QForm to attach to this Section.
    If the Section is going to contain Text Blocks with Fields from Data Backbone, so the end user can fill in these Fields at runtime, you can attach a QForm to the Section that will contain individual questions related to these Fields. The QForm must already exist.
  6. Under Show/Hide, select Section is not always included to make the Section conditional so it only appears when you need it in your document.

    A new empty field appears.

    1. Click Add to add a new condition, select a Field that relates to the Section in question, and then click Select.
    2. In the empty space to the right from the value drop-down list, enter text associated with the selected Field. For example, if you enter Y, the Section will be included in the Content Wizard when this Field is equal to the value Y (for yes). You can apply as many conditions as necessary.
    3. Click Save in the upper right corner.

      The condition is applied to the section.

  7. Under Advanced, select a Status Field to automatically store information on the user's choice in a resulting Data Backbone XML when composing the document.
  8. Click Save.
  9. To add an item to the Section, right-click it in the tree and click Add item.
