Aspose::Words::Layout::LayoutEnumerator::Reset method

LayoutEnumerator::Reset method

Moves the enumerator to the first page of the document.

void Aspose::Words::Layout::LayoutEnumerator::Reset()

Examples

Shows ways of traversing a document’s layout entities.

void LayoutEnumerator_()
{
    // Open a document that contains a variety of layout entities.
    // Layout entities are pages, cells, rows, lines, and other objects included in the LayoutEntityType enum.
    // Each layout entity has a rectangular space that it occupies in the document body.
    auto doc = MakeObject<Document>(MyDir + u"Layout entities.docx");

    // Create an enumerator that can traverse these entities like a tree.
    auto layoutEnumerator = MakeObject<LayoutEnumerator>(doc);

    ASPOSE_ASSERT_EQ(doc, layoutEnumerator->get_Document());

    layoutEnumerator->Reset();

    // There are two orders that determine how the layout enumerator continues traversing layout entities
    // when it encounters entities that span across multiple pages.
    // 1 -  In visual order:
    // When moving through an entity's children that span multiple pages,
    // page layout takes precedence, and we move to other child elements on this page and avoid the ones on the next.
