SuppressEndnotes

PageSetup.SuppressEndnotes property

True if endnotes are printed at the end of the next section that doesn’t suppress endnotes. Suppressed endnotes are printed before the endnotes in that section.

public bool SuppressEndnotes { get; set; }

Examples

Shows how to store endnotes at the end of each section, and modify their positions.

public void SuppressEndnotes()
{
    Document doc = new Document();
    doc.RemoveAllChildren();

    // By default, a document compiles all endnotes at its end. 
    Assert.AreEqual(EndnotePosition.EndOfDocument, doc.EndnoteOptions.Position);

    // We use the "Position" property of the document's "EndnoteOptions" object
    // to collect endnotes at the end of each section instead. 
    doc.EndnoteOptions.Position = EndnotePosition.EndOfSection;

    InsertSectionWithEndnote(doc, "Section 1", "Endnote 1, will stay in section 1");
    InsertSectionWithEndnote(doc, "Section 2", "Endnote 2, will be pushed down to section 3");
    InsertSectionWithEndnote(doc, "Section 3", "Endnote 3, will stay in section 3");

    // While getting sections to display their respective endnotes, we can set the "SuppressEndnotes" flag
    // of a section's "PageSetup" object to "true" to revert to the default behavior and pass its endnotes
    // onto the next section.
    PageSetup pageSetup = doc.Sections[1].PageSetup;
    pageSetup.SuppressEndnotes = true;

    doc.Save(ArtifactsDir + "PageSetup.SuppressEndnotes.docx");
}

/// <summary>
/// Append a section with text and an endnote to a document.
/// </summary>
private static void InsertSectionWithEndnote(Document doc, string sectionBodyText, string endnoteText)
{
    Section section = new Section(doc);

    doc.AppendChild(section);

    Body body = new Body(doc);
    section.AppendChild(body);

    Assert.AreEqual(section, body.ParentNode);

    Paragraph para = new Paragraph(doc);
    body.AppendChild(para);

    Assert.AreEqual(body, para.ParentNode);

    DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);
    builder.MoveTo(para);
    builder.Write(sectionBodyText);
    builder.InsertFootnote(FootnoteType.Endnote, endnoteText);
}
