Examples

Shows to insert NOTEREF fields, and modify their appearance.

def field_note_ref():
    doc = aw.Document()
    builder = aw.DocumentBuilder(doc)
    # Create a bookmark with a footnote that the NOTEREF field will reference.
    insert_bookmark_with_footnote(builder, 'MyBookmark1', 'Contents of MyBookmark1', 'Footnote from MyBookmark1')
    # This NOTEREF field will display the number of the footnote inside the referenced bookmark.
    # Setting the "insert_hyperlink" property lets us jump to the bookmark by Ctrl + clicking the field in Microsoft Word.
    self.assertEqual(' NOTEREF  MyBookmark2 \\h', insert_field_note_ref(builder, 'MyBookmark2', True, False, False, 'Hyperlink to Bookmark2, with footnote number ').get_field_code())
    # When using the \p flag, after the footnote number, the field also displays the bookmark's position relative to the field.
    # Bookmark1 is above this field and contains footnote number 1, so the result will be "1 above" on update.
    self.assertEqual(' NOTEREF  MyBookmark1 \\h \\p', insert_field_note_ref(builder, 'MyBookmark1', True, True, False, 'Bookmark1, with footnote number ').get_field_code())
    # Bookmark2 is below this field and contains footnote number 2, so the field will display "2 below".
    # The \f flag makes the number 2 appear in the same format as the footnote number label in the actual text.
    self.assertEqual(' NOTEREF  MyBookmark2 \\h \\p \\f', insert_field_note_ref(builder, 'MyBookmark2', True, True, True, 'Bookmark2, with footnote number ').get_field_code())
