Examples

Shows how to limit the editing rights of editable ranges to a specific group/user.

public void Visitor()
{
    Document doc = new Document();
    doc.Protect(ProtectionType.ReadOnly, "MyPassword");

    DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);
    builder.Writeln("Hello world! Since we have set the document's protection level to read-only," +
                    " we cannot edit this paragraph without the password.");

    // When we write-protect documents, editable ranges allow us to pick specific areas that users may edit.
    // There are two mutually exclusive ways to narrow down the list of allowed editors.
    // 1 -  Specify a user:
    EditableRange editableRange = builder.StartEditableRange().EditableRange;
    editableRange.SingleUser = "john.doe@myoffice.com";
    builder.Writeln($"This paragraph is inside the first editable range, can only be edited by {editableRange.SingleUser}.");
    builder.EndEditableRange();

    Assert.AreEqual(EditorType.Unspecified, editableRange.EditorGroup);

    // 2 -  Specify a group that allowed users are associated with:
    editableRange = builder.StartEditableRange().EditableRange;
    editableRange.EditorGroup = EditorType.Administrators;
    builder.Writeln($"This paragraph is inside the first editable range, can only be edited by {editableRange.EditorGroup}.");
    builder.EndEditableRange();

    Assert.AreEqual(string.Empty, editableRange.SingleUser);

    builder.Writeln("This paragraph is outside the editable range, and cannot be edited by anybody.");

    // Print details and contents of every editable range in the document.
    EditableRangePrinter editableRangePrinter = new EditableRangePrinter();

    doc.Accept(editableRangePrinter);

    Console.WriteLine(editableRangePrinter.ToText());
