Retrieving a section
A section can be retrieved using merge.template.contexts.ContextType.sections["section
name"], for example: merge.template.contexts.PRINT.sections["Section EN"].
A section can also be retrieved via merge.context.sections['section name']. Remember,
however, that when several contexts need to be merged (for example, when the Print context is
attached to an email), the script needs to check if the current context is of the type that contains
the desired section (for example: if (merge.context.type == ContextType.PRINT) {}). When
sections in different contexts have the same name, it is safer to use
merge.template.contexts.ContextType.sections["section name"].
Fields
Field Type Description
background String Print sections only. Used to set a PDF background on
a Print section. See "Control Script: Setting a Print
section's background" on page243 and
"BackgroundResource" on page483.
enabled boolean Enables or disables this section for output (see
"Examples" on page479). Note that even if a section is
disabled, the part and restartPageNumber fields
are still effective to define the parts division and page
numbering over multiple sections when applicable.
The default enabled state for sections (before any
control script runs) is as follows:
For Web channel requests, the requested web section
is enabled by default. It is possible to redirect to another
section by disabling the requested section and enabling
another section.
For Email channel requests on the Web context, only
the default section is enabled by default. It is possible to
enable different or multiple sections, to control which
sections will be attached to the email.
For Email channel requests on the Print context all
