Insert Bookmark at beginning of text.

[dazfitzg]

I am evaluating the libraries at the moment and have come across an issue, which I can't find an answer to.

I need to be able to insert a bookmark into a document at the start of a paragraph; the intended bookmark will have its start and end at the same location. It would appear that I can only append a bookmark to the current paragraph end, my problem is that I need to relocate an existing bookmark to a new location, both the old location and the new location are in this case within a table cell. I cannot replace the current cell contents, but I want to add the bookmark to the beginning of the cell.

I think I have achieved this, although it is not quite intuitive.

The steps I needed to take were,
Use a BookmarkNavigator (nav) to find the bookmark to move.
Remove the old Bookmark

Code: Select all

doc.Bookmarks.Remove(nav.CurrentBookmark);


Append the new BookmarkStart and BookMarkEnd into the 1st paragraph of the TableCell

Code: Select all

var bms = para.AppendBookmarkStart("test");
var bme = para.AppendBookmarkEnd("test");


Then move them to the start of the paragraph, in reverse order.

Code: Select all

para.Items.Insert(0,bme);
para.Items.Insert(0,bms);


This correctly inserts a bookmark as the first item in the cell.
