Examples

Shows how to build and customize a table of authorities using TOA and TA fields.

    auto doc = MakeObject<Document>();

    // Insert a TOA field, which will create an entry for each TA field in the document,
    // displaying long citations and page numbers for each entry.
    auto fieldToa = System::ExplicitCast<FieldToa>(builder->InsertField(FieldType::FieldTOA, false));

    // Set the entry category for our table. This TOA will now only include TA fields
    // that have a matching value in their EntryCategory property.
    fieldToa->set_EntryCategory(u"1");

    // Moreover, the Table of Authorities category at index 1 is "Cases",
    // which will show up as our table's title if we set this variable to true.
    fieldToa->set_UseHeading(true);

    // We can further filter TA fields by naming a bookmark that they will need to be within the TOA bounds.
    fieldToa->set_BookmarkName(u"MyBookmark");

    // By default, a dotted line page-wide tab appears between the TA field's citation
    // and its page number. We can replace it with any text we put on this property.
    // Inserting a tab character will preserve the original tab.
    fieldToa->set_EntrySeparator(u" \t p.");

    // If we have multiple TA entries that share the same long citation,
    // all their respective page numbers will show up on one row.
    // We can use this property to specify a string that will separate their page numbers.
    fieldToa->set_PageNumberListSeparator(u" & p. ");

    // We can set this to true to get our table to display the word "passim"
    // if there are five or more page numbers in one row.

    // We can specify a string here to appear between the start and end page numbers for such ranges.
