Heading Control
See also: Containers, Introduction to Styling, Styling Assistants, Controls
A Heading Control (not to be confused with a Header Control) represents one of the HTML heading tags <h1> – <h6>, where the control’s Level property specifies which HTML tag to use. The Outline View shows which level has been selected. Typically a Heading Control will just contain a text but it can also contain phrasing content – which consists of the following child controls: Text Controls, Hyperlink Controls, Canvas Controls, Image Controls and HTML Controls.
When a Heading Control has no child controls, the heading text configured using the text property is displayed.
When a Heading Control has child controls it behaves in a different mode: the heading text configured in the text property is ignored and the control is rendered using the child controls – with the expectation that any text will be included in a child Text Control.
When adding the first child Text Control, the system will automatically copy the text configured in the Text property. When adding an Image Control or a Canvas Control, an additional Text Control is also created if one doesn’t already exist and the Text property is configured.
