Example
This script retrieves two Print sections. Then, depending on a value in the current record, it
enables one section or the other, so that only one of the two sections appears in the output.
var printSections = merge.template.contexts.PRINT.sections;
printSections['Section EN'].enabled = false;
printSections['Section FR'].enabled = false;
if(record.fields.Language === 'FR'){
printSections['Section FR'].enabled = true;
} else {
printSections['Section EN'].enabled = true;
}
MediaPosition
In a Control Script, the position is an enumeration for the position of background resources for
a Print section. It is retrieved and set via background.position.

(background.top) and left (background.left) measured from the top
and left side of the section.
