## end_editable_range() {#default}

Marks the current position in the document as an editable range end.


```python
def end_editable_range(self):
    ...
```

### Remarks

Editable range in a document can overlap and span any range. To create a valid editable range you need to
call both [DocumentBuilder.start_editable_range()](../start_editable_range/#default) and [DocumentBuilder.end_editable_range()](./#default)
or [DocumentBuilder.end_editable_range()](./#editablerangestart) methods.

Badly formed editable range will be ignored when the document is saved.




### Returns

The editable range end node that was just created.


## end_editable_range(start) {#editablerangestart}

Marks the current position in the document as an editable range end.


```python
def end_editable_range(self, start: aspose.words.EditableRangeStart):
    ...
```

| Parameter | Type | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| start | [EditableRangeStart](../../editablerangestart/) | This editable range start. |

### Remarks

Use this overload during creating nested editable ranges.

Editable range in a document can overlap and span any range. To create a valid editable range you need to
call both [DocumentBuilder.start_editable_range()](../start_editable_range/#default) and [DocumentBuilder.end_editable_range()](./#default)
or [DocumentBuilder.end_editable_range()](./#editablerangestart) methods.

Badly formed editable range will be ignored when the document is saved.




### Returns

## Examples

Shows how to create nested editable ranges.

```python
doc = aw.Document()
doc.protect(type=aw.ProtectionType.READ_ONLY, password='MyPassword')
builder = aw.DocumentBuilder(doc=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.')
# Create two nested editable ranges.
outer_editable_range_start = builder.start_editable_range()
builder.writeln('This paragraph inside the outer editable range and can be edited.')
inner_editable_range_start = builder.start_editable_range()
builder.writeln('This paragraph inside both the outer and inner editable ranges and can be edited.')
# 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.end_editable_range(inner_editable_range_start)
builder.writeln('This paragraph inside the outer editable range and can be edited.')
builder.end_editable_range(outer_editable_range_start)
builder.writeln('This paragraph is outside any editable ranges, and cannot be edited.')
# If a region of text has two overlapping editable ranges with specified groups,
# the combined group of users excluded by both groups are prevented from editing it.
outer_editable_range_start.editable_range.editor_group = aw.EditorType.EVERYONE
inner_editable_range_start.editable_range.editor_group = aw.EditorType.CONTRIBUTORS
doc.save(file_name=ARTIFACTS_DIR + 'EditableRange.Nested.docx')
```
