I may have asked something like this before, so I apologize if its a redundant issue. But I never resolved it for myself.
The question is just as it is phrase in the title.
Can AutoText be made into “Auto Sections”?
The idea is, if a snippet of auto-text could be made into “auto-sections”, then - by inserting an “auto-section” into a Writer doc, one could effectively broadcast the automated section at different points in the document. What’s more to my purpose, if one wanted to turn those automated sections on or off, then one could simply hide or unhide the automated section.
Thus, suppose X was the content of an automated section, in a row of other sections with content A, B, C, D and E. One could add in the automation, as such:
A, B, X, C, X, D, E, X
If X was set to “unhide”, then whatever content is in the sectional array would appear to the reader.
But, if X was set to “hide”, then whatever content is in the sectional array would appear as follows:
A, B, C, D, E
Even if this is possible, there may still be some potential problems with the variation of the content between each appearance of X section. But - while I am trying to scope the problem - it may be enough for now just to see if it is possible to make sectionalized auto-text.
If I can get that far, then maybe I can find a way to make variable auto-text at the next step.
I dont know if these ideas are possible, but if you simply dont like the idea or find it weird and unusual, please refrain from commenting, as I am not looking for people to detract from what I am trying to do. Let me know if they are impossible, but - if they are possible - I am looking for and appreciative of synergistic and helpful replies.
