suppressAutoHyphens (Suppress Hyphenation for Paragraph)

This element specifies whether any hyphenation shall be performed on this paragraph by the consumer when requested using the autoHyphenation element (§2.15.1.10) in the document's settings. This element specifies whether the current paragraph should be exempted from any hyphenation which is applied by the consumer on this document.

If this element is omitted on a given paragraph, its value is determined by the setting previously set at any level of the style hierarchy (i.e. that previous setting remains unchanged). If this setting is never specified in the style hierarchy, then the default hyphenation settings for the document, as specified in the autoHyphenation element, shall apply to the contents of this paragraph.

[Example: Consider a document which shall be hyphenated automatically by a consumer, since it has the autoHyphenation element set to true in its document settings. If this paragraph should be exempted from that hyphenation pass, this requirement would be specified using the following WordprocessingML:

<w:pPr>

<w:suppressAutoHyphens />

</w:pPr>

The paragraph would then be exempted from hyphenation by a consumer at display time, regardless of the hyphenation settings for the document. 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>
