Examples
Shows how to use of methods of Node and CompositeNode to remove a section before the last section in the document.
doc = aw.Document()
builder = aw.DocumentBuilder(doc)
builder.writeln("Section 1 text.")
builder.insert_break(aw.BreakType.SECTION_BREAK_CONTINUOUS)
builder.writeln("Section 2 text.")
# Both sections are siblings of each other.
last_section = doc.last_child.as_section()
first_section = last_section.previous_sibling.as_section()
# Remove a section based on its sibling relationship with another section.
if last_section.previous_sibling is not None:
doc.remove_child(first_section)
# The section we removed was the first one, leaving the document with only the second.
self.assertEqual("Section 2 text.", doc.get_text().strip())
