You must give the editable region a unique name as usual.
You may notice that the repeating and editable regions tabs overlap, making it difficult to see
the repeating region name. I??™ve found it handy to use fairly long names for the repeating
region, such as dataRowRepeating, and relatively short names for the editable region, such as dataRow, to
enable me to see portions of both tabs. Also, although all template regions use the same color established in
Preferences, the highlight for a repeating region is significantly lighter than that for editable regions. This
color variation makes it much easier to identify the different types of regions.
Modifying a repeating region
The power of repeating regions isn??™t apparent until you open a template-based document containing one. With
Invisible Elements enabled, you notice a series of buttons above each repeating region, as shown in Figure 28-9.
With these controls, new entries??”identical to the content contained within the repeating region??”are added,
deleted, or moved from one position to another. You can even copy and paste content within a repeating region.
FIGURE 28-9
Entries can not only be added and removed in a repeating region; they can also be re-ordered.
