Examples
Shows how to populate an INDEX field with entries using XE fields, and also modify its appearance.
doc = aw.Document()
builder = aw.DocumentBuilder(doc)
# Create an INDEX field which will display an entry for each XE field found in the document.
# Each entry will display the XE field's Text property value on the left side,
# and the number of the page that contains the XE field on the right.
# If the XE fields have the same value in their "text" property,
# the INDEX field will group them into one entry.
index = builder.insert_field(aw.fields.FieldType.FIELD_INDEX, True).as_field_index()
index.language_id = '1033' # en-US
# Setting this property's value to "A" will group all the entries by their first letter,
# and place that letter in uppercase above each group.
index.heading = 'A'
# Set the table created by the INDEX field to span over 2 columns.
index.number_of_columns = '2'
# Set any entries with starting letters outside the "a-c" character range to be omitted.
index.letter_range = 'a-c'
self.assertEqual(' INDEX \\z 1033 \\h A \\c 2 \\p a-c', index.get_field_code())
# These next two XE fields will show up under the "A" heading,
# with their respective text stylings also applied to their page numbers.
