[Table of Contents] [docx version]

WordprocessingML Reference Material - Table of Contents

hidden (Hidden Table Row Marker)

This element specifies that the glyph representing the end character of current table row shall not be displayed in the current document.

[Note: This setting is used to hide the end of row glyph in order to ensure that the entire table row is hidden and not displayed in the document, as if any part of the row is visible, the row is displayed. end note]

[Note: Applications may have settings which allow hidden content to be displayed, in which case this content may be visible - this property is not meant to supersede that setting. end note]

If this element is omitted, then this table row shall not be hidden in the document.

[Example: Consider a table with a table row in which the row is specified to be hidden. That requirement is specified using the following WordprocessingML:

<w:tbl>

<w:tr>
<w:trPr>
<w:hidden />

</w:trPr>

</w:tr>
</w:tbl>

In this example this row will not be displayed nor printed, as the hidden element is specified on in table row's properties. end example]

Attributes

Description

val (On/Off Value)

Specifies a binary value for the property defined by the parent XML element.

 

A value of on, 1, or true specifies that the property shall be explicitly applied. This is the default value for this attribute, and is implied when the parent element is present, but this attribute is omitted.

 

A value of off, 0, or false specifies that the property shall be explicitly turned off.

 

[Example: For example, consider the following on/off property:

 

<w:… w:val="off"/>

 

The val attribute explicitly declares that the property is turned off. end example]

 

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_OnOff simple type2.18.67).

The following XML Schema fragment defines the contents of this element:

<complexType name="CT_OnOff">

   <attribute name="val" type="ST_OnOff"/>

</complexType>
