Remarks

InlineStory is a container for block-level nodes Paragraph and Table.

The classes that derive from InlineStory are inline-level nodes that can contain their own text (paragraphs and tables). For example, a Comment node contains text of a comment and a Footnote contains text of a footnote.

Examples

Shows how to insert and customize footnotes.

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

// Add text, and reference it with a footnote. This footnote will place a small superscript reference
// mark after the text that it references and create an entry below the main body text at the bottom of the page.
// This entry will contain the footnote's reference mark and the reference text,
// which we will pass to the document builder's "InsertFootnote" method.
builder->Write(u"Main body text.");
SharedPtr<Footnote> footnote = builder->InsertFootnote(FootnoteType::Footnote, u"Footnote text.");

// If this property is set to "true", then our footnote's reference mark
// will be its index among all the section's footnotes.
// This is the first footnote, so the reference mark will be "1".
ASSERT_TRUE(footnote->get_IsAuto());

// We can move the document builder inside the footnote to edit its reference text.
builder->MoveTo(footnote->get_FirstParagraph());
builder->Write(u" More text added by a DocumentBuilder.");
builder->MoveToDocumentEnd();

ASSERT_EQ(u"\u0002 Footnote text. More text added by a DocumentBuilder.", footnote->GetText().Trim());

builder->Write(u" More main body text.");
footnote = builder->InsertFootnote(FootnoteType::Footnote, u"Footnote text.");

// We can set a custom reference mark which the footnote will use instead of its index number.
footnote->set_ReferenceMark(u"RefMark");

ASSERT_FALSE(footnote->get_IsAuto());

// A bookmark with the "IsAuto" flag set to true will still show its real index
// even if previous bookmarks display custom reference marks, so this bookmark's reference mark will be a "3".
builder->Write(u" More main body text.");
footnote = builder->InsertFootnote(FootnoteType::Footnote, u"Footnote text.");

ASSERT_TRUE(footnote->get_IsAuto());

doc->Save(ArtifactsDir + u"InlineStory.AddFootnote.docx");

Shows how to add a comment to a paragraph.

auto doc = MakeObject<Document>();
auto builder = MakeObject<DocumentBuilder>(doc);
builder->Write(u"Hello world!");

auto comment = MakeObject<Comment>(doc, u"John Doe", u"JD", System::DateTime::get_Today());
builder->get_CurrentParagraph()->AppendChild(comment);
builder->MoveTo(comment->AppendChild(MakeObject<Paragraph>(doc)));
builder->Write(u"Comment text.");

ASSERT_EQ(System::DateTime::get_Today(), comment->get_DateTime());

// In Microsoft Word, we can right-click this comment in the document body to edit it, or reply to it.
doc->Save(ArtifactsDir + u"InlineStory.AddComment.docx");
