Description

The Chapter/Subsection component groups portions of the report into sections. Each section has a title and some content. The following rules apply to the Chapter/Subsection component:

• Children of the Chapter/Subsection component are placed inside the section created by this component.
• The Chapter/Subsection component takes paragraph-level children unless you check the Take section title from the first subcomponent? check box. In this case, a Chapter/Subsection component's first child must be a Text component.
• The Chapter/Subsection component can be the child of another Chapter/Subsection component.

Sections can be nested and titles will automatically become smaller inside sub-sections. There are seven levels of nesting possible.

• Chapter
      Section 1
          Section 2
              Section 3
                   Section 4
                       Section 5
                           Section 6
                                    No Section
  

Any Chapter/Subsection components beyond the sixth section do not create a titled section, although the subcomponents of these sections do insert information into the report.

Chapter Numbering

By default, chapters are numbered and sections are not numbered. Chapter and section numbering are specified by the stylesheet you choose in the Report Options attribute page. See Report Format and Stylesheets for chapter and section numbering options in Web and Print stylesheets.

Attributes

This is the Chapter/Subsection attribute page.

Note    To view a component attribute page in the Setup File Editor, select the component in the setup file outline on the left and click on the Options tab. If the component is not in the setup file outline, you must add it to the outline first. See Building and Editing the Setup File for a discussion on how to add a component to the outline.

Section Title

Get title from first subcomponent

Select this option if you want to take the title of the section of the first subcomponent. If you choose this option, the title is taken from the first subcomponent and section content is drawn from the second subcomponent until the end of the subcomponent list. The first subcomponent should be a Text component.

Specify title

If you do not want to get the title from the first subcomponent, then enter the title in this field. You can enter %<VariableName> if you want to insert the value of a variable from the MATLAB workspace. Please see %<VariableName> Notation in the Text component reference page.

Section Type

The item in boldface shows you what level the selected section is residing in.

For example, if you have the following in the setup file outline

• Chapter/Subsection
      Paragraph
      Text
      Chapter/Subsection
          Paragraph
          Text
  

And you select the second Chapter/Subsection component, the Section Type hierarchy field will look like this.

• Chapter
      Section 1
          Section 2
              Section 3
                   Section 4
                       Section 5
                           Simple Section
                                    No Section
  

Section 1 appears in boldface to indicate the nesting level of the selected Chapter/Subsection component.
