Methods

SignatureDescription
HeaderFooter(doc: DocumentBase, headerFooterType: HeaderFooterType)Creates a new header or footer of the specified type.
Accept(visitor: DocumentVisitor)Calls VisitHeaderFooterStart, then calls Accept for all child nodes of the section and calls VisitHeaderFooterEnd at the end.
AcceptStart(visitor: DocumentVisitor)Accepts a visitor for visiting the start of the header.
AcceptEnd(visitor: DocumentVisitor)Accepts a visitor for visiting the end of the header.
DeleteShapes()Deletes all shapes from the text of this story.
AppendParagraph(text: string)A shortcut method that creates a Paragraph object with optional text and appends it to the end of this object.
GetText()Gets the text of this node and of all its children.
GetChildNodes(nodeType: NodeType, isDeep: bool)Returns a collection of child nodes that match the specified type.
GetChild(nodeType: NodeType, index: int, isDeep: bool)Returns an Nth child node that matches the specified type.
SelectNodes(xpath: string)Selects a list of nodes matching the XPath expression.
SelectSingleNode(xpath: string)Selects the first Node that matches the XPath expression.
GetEnumerator()Provides support for the for each style iteration over the child nodes of this node.
AppendChild(newChild: T)Adds the specified node to the end of the list of child nodes for this node.
PrependChild(newChild: T)Adds the specified node to the beginning of the list of child nodes for this node.
InsertAfter(newChild: T, refChild: Node)Inserts the specified node immediately after the specified reference node.
InsertBefore(newChild: T, refChild: Node)Inserts the specified node immediately before the specified reference node.
RemoveChild(oldChild: T)Removes the specified child node.
RemoveAllChildren()Removes all the child nodes of the current node.
RemoveSmartTags()Removes all SmartTag descendant nodes of the current node.
IndexOf(child: Node)Returns the index of the specified child node in the child node array.
CreateNavigator()Creates navigator which can be used to traverse and read nodes.
Clone(isCloneChildren: bool)You should use the Clone(bool, INodeCloningListener) overload when the node cloning is a part of another (usually composite) node cloning process.
GetAncestor(ancestorType: Type)Gets the first ancestor of the specified object type.
GetAncestorOf()Calls GetAncestorOf on this HeaderFooter instance.
Remove()Removes itself from the parent.
NextPreOrder(rootNode: Node)Gets next node according to the pre-order tree traversal algorithm.
PreviousPreOrder(rootNode: Node)Gets the previous node according to the pre-order tree traversal algorithm.
ToString(saveFormat: SaveFormat)Exports the content of the node into a string in the specified format.
NodeTypeToString(nodeType: NodeType)A utility method that converts a node type enum value into a user friendly string.
