Methods

MethodDescription
get_DisplayResult()Gets the text that represents the displayed field result.
get_DownOffset()Gets or sets the number of points by which the text that follows the field should be moved down.
get_End() constGets the node that represents the field end.
get_FieldEnd() constGets the node that represents the field end.
get_FieldStart() constGets the node that represents the start of the field.
get_Format()Gets a FieldFormat object that provides typed access to field’s formatting.
get_HorizontalPosition()Gets or sets the number of points by which the text that follows the field should be moved horizontally from the left edge of the column, frame, or text box.
get_IsDirty()Gets whether the current result of the field is no longer correct (stale) due to other modifications made to the document.
get_IsLocked()Gets or sets whether the field is locked (should not recalculate its result).
get_LeftOffset()Gets or sets the number of points by which the text that follows the field should be moved left.
get_LocaleId()Gets or sets the LCID of the field.
get_Result()Gets or sets text that is between the field separator and field end.
get_RightOffset()Gets or sets the number of points by which the text that follows the field should be moved right.
get_Separator()Gets the node that represents the field separator. Can be null.
get_Start() constGets the node that represents the start of the field.
virtual get_Type() constGets the Microsoft Word field type.
get_UpOffset()Gets or sets the number of points by which the text that follows the field should be moved up.
get_VerticalPosition()Gets or sets the number of points by which the text that follows the field should be moved vertically from the top edge of the page.
GetFieldCode()Returns text between field start and field separator (or field end if there is no separator). Both field code and field result of child fields are included.
GetFieldCode(bool)Returns text between field start and field separator (or field end if there is no separator).
GetType() const override
Is(const System::TypeInfo&) const override
Remove()Removes the field from the document. Returns a node right after the field. If the field’s end is the last child of its parent node, returns its parent paragraph. If the field is already removed, returns null.

static Type()
Unlink()Performs the field unlink.
Update()Performs the field update. Throws if the field is being updated already.
Update(bool)Performs a field update. Throws if the field is being updated already.

Examples

Shows how to insert an ADVANCE field, and edit its properties.

auto doc = MakeObject<Document>();
auto builder = MakeObject<DocumentBuilder>(doc);

builder->Write(u"This text is in its normal place.");

// Below are two ways of using the ADVANCE field to adjust the position of text that follows it.
// The effects of an ADVANCE field continue to be applied until the paragraph ends,
// or another ADVANCE field updates the offset/coordinate values.
// 1 -  Specify a directional offset:
auto field = System::ExplicitCast<FieldAdvance>(builder->InsertField(FieldType::FieldAdvance, true));
field->set_RightOffset(u"5");
field->set_UpOffset(u"5");

ASSERT_EQ(u" ADVANCE  \\r 5 \\u 5", field->GetFieldCode());

builder->Write(u"This text will be moved up and to the right.");

field = System::ExplicitCast<FieldAdvance>(builder->InsertField(FieldType::FieldAdvance, true));
field->set_DownOffset(u"5");
field->set_LeftOffset(u"100");

ASSERT_EQ(u" ADVANCE  \\d 5 \\l 100", field->GetFieldCode());

builder->Writeln(u"This text is moved down and to the left, overlapping the previous text.");

// 2 -  Move text to a position specified by coordinates:
field = System::ExplicitCast<FieldAdvance>(builder->InsertField(FieldType::FieldAdvance, true));
field->set_HorizontalPosition(u"-100");
field->set_VerticalPosition(u"200");

ASSERT_EQ(u" ADVANCE  \\x -100 \\y 200", field->GetFieldCode());

builder->Write(u"This text is in a custom position.");

doc->Save(ArtifactsDir + u"Field.ADVANCE.docx");
