Object Usage
"section"
on
page564
Much of the Control Script magic is performed by setting one of the fields of
the section object. Via the section object you can omit, select and clone
sections; add a background to a Print section; add a header to an email; etc.
A section can be retrieved via the context that it belongs to, using
merge.template.contexts.ContextType.sections["section name"]. For
example: merge.template.contexts.PRINT.sections["Section EN"].
"context"
on the
facing
page
Object that contains one context and its sections. It is accessed through the
template object: merge.template.contexts.
To get access to one context, you have to specify the ContextType (see
"ContextType" on page577), for example: var printContext =
merge.template.contexts.PRINT;.
Through the merge object you can find out which context is currently being
merged: merge.context.
"template"
on
page573
The template object contains all contexts and sections. It is accessed
through the merge object: merge.template.
