Adding notes, examples and code elements

1 Adding notes and examples

Notes/Examples can be added almost anywhere in the document text. 

To add Notes/Examples on individual elements (like terminological entries or in table footers):

• right-click on the element

OR

• click on the contextual menu of the element and then select Note or Example.

More generally, to add notes or examples anywhere in the document, select the Note or Example item from the INSERT menu:

Please Note

• Notes and examples, like many other elements of the tool, are automatically numbered in each clause.

• The Note/Example container will appear in the text. It is important to use the Note/ Example elements rather than just typing the word "note" or "example" in the text, as Note/Example elements are formatted in a standard way downstream and can also be processed by machines.

Please Note

If there is more than one note or example inside a clause, the system will automatically number them sequentially, i.e. Note 1, Note 2 or Example 1, Example 2.

Caution, important and warning do not get numbered even if there are multiple elements in a clause.

• Notes can be reordered by moving them as follows:
