Chapter/Subsection
Group portions of report into sections with titles
Description
This component groups portions of the report into sections. Each section has a title and
content.
The following rules apply to this component:
• Child components appear inside the section created by this component.
• Selecting the Get title from first child component check box prevents this
component from accepting paragraph-level children. In this case, this component's
first child must be a Text component.
• This component can have Chapter/Subsection components as its children.
• Sections can be nested. There are seven levels of nesting possible. The seventh nested
section in the report is untitled, although the child components of this section include
information into the report.
Chapter Numbering
By default, chapters are numbered and sections are not numbered. Specify chapter and
section numbering using a stylesheet. For more information about chapter and section
numbering options in Web and print stylesheets, see “Report Output Format”.
