// Currently, the document builder's node insertion cursor is in more than one ongoing editable range.
// When we want to end an editable range in this situation,
// we need to specify which of the ranges we wish to end by passing its EditableRangeStart node.

builder.endEditableRange(outerEditableRangeStart);

builder.writeln("This paragraph is outside any editable ranges, and cannot be edited.");

// the combined group of users excluded by both groups are prevented from editing it.
outerEditableRangeStart.editableRange.editorGroup = aw.EditorType.Everyone;
innerEditableRangeStart.editableRange.editorGroup = aw.EditorType.Contributors;
