The following settings use built-in Mif2Go macros to surround paragraphs in the designated formats with code to produce the link and expanding block:
; Paragraph format = DropDown, DropDownLink, DropDownBlock,
; DropDownStart, or DropDownEnd.
or, for the link, to surround character spans:
; Character format = DropDownLink, DropDownStart
Which format properties to assign depends on the type of link and arrangement of material to be expanded:
DropDownLink
(for
the link) and DropDownBlock
(for the block)
together.
DropDownStart
(for
the link) and DropDownEnd
(for the block) together.
DropDown
(for the
block) by itself; Mif2Go generates the link paragraph.
To expand a single-paragraph block using a Mif2Go-inserted link:
To use an existing paragraph for the link, and a single paragraph for the block:
To make a single- or multiple-paragraph drop-down block start right after the link paragraph:
If you use empty paragraphs for BlockEndFormat,
assign format property Raw
to the format:
BlockEndFormat = DropDownEnd Raw
Format property Raw
is needed only if you are using an empty
paragraph to delimit the drop-down block.
