XAML Section
This article shows how to create and use a Section in a WPF FlowDocument using XAML.
Section is used only to contain other Block-derived elements. It does not apply any default formatting to the elements it contains. However, any property values set on a Section applies to its child elements. A section also enables you to programmatically iterate through its child collection.
Section is used in a similar manner to the <DIV> tag in HTML.
In the example below, three paragraphs are defined under one Section . The section has a Background property value of Red, therefore the background color of the paragraphs is also red.
<FlowDocument >
<Section Background="Red">
<Paragraph>
Paragraph 1
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph>
Paragraph 2
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph>
Paragraph 3
</Paragraph>
</Section>
</FlowDocument>

C# example:
using System;
using System.Windows;
using System.Windows.Media;
using System.Windows.Controls;
using System.Windows.Documents;
namespace SDKSample
{
public partial class SectionExample : Page
{
public SectionExample()
{
// Create three paragraphs
Paragraph myParagraph1 = new Paragraph(new Run("Paragraph 1"));
Paragraph myParagraph2 = new Paragraph(new Run("Paragraph 2"));
Paragraph myParagraph3 = new Paragraph(new Run("Paragraph 3"));
// Create a Section and add the three paragraphs to it.
Section mySection = new Section();
mySection.Background = Brushes.Red;
mySection.Blocks.Add(myParagraph1);
mySection.Blocks.Add(myParagraph2);
mySection.Blocks.Add(myParagraph3);
// Create a FlowDocument and add the section to it.
FlowDocument myFlowDocument = new FlowDocument();
myFlowDocument.Blocks.Add(mySection);
this.Content = myFlowDocument;
}
}
}
