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"].

enabled Boolean Enables or disables this section for output
(see "Examples" on page970). Note that
even if a Print 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:
l For Email channel requests on the
Print context all Print sections are
enabled by default. It is possible to
enable different or multiple sections to
control which sections will be attached
to the email.
