• Use the Background page to add color or a graphic to the section’s
background.
• Use the Footnotes/Endnotes page to customize the section’s footnotes and
endnotes.
At any time, you can reset a tabbed page to its default settings by clicking the Reset
button. (Note, however, that you cannot reset the Section page. If you wish to undo
changes to the Section page, you must do so manually.)
Use the Section page to set the attributes of the current section.
Naming sections
Writer automatically enters a name for the current section in the top box of the New
section area. To change the name, select it and type over it. The name is displayed in
the Sections category of the Navigator window. If you give your sections meaningful
names, you can navigate to them more easily.
Linking sections
You can insert the contents of another document into the current section and then
have Writer update the section whenever the other document is updated. This is
called linking the section to the other document.
To link the current section to another document, follow these steps:
1) In the Link area, select the Link option.
2) Click the (...) button to the right of the File name field. The Insert dialog box
opens.
3) Find and select the document you want to insert and then click the Insert
button. The Insert dialog box closes and the name of the selected document
appears in the File name field.
4) If you want to insert only a section of the selected document, select the desired
section from the Section drop-down list.
Note
The section must already exist in the selected document. You cannot
create a section in the selected document at this point.
You can update links automatically or manually. See “Updating links” on page 129.
