<customXmlMoveToRangeStart> (Custom XML Markup Move Destination Location Start)

This element specifies the start of a region within which all custom XML markup was moved to this location in the document and this move was tracked as a revision. The @id attribute on this element shall be used to link this element with the corresponding custom XML move destination end marker in the document.

Providing a physical representation of the start and end tags of custom XML markup results in regions which can be inserted and deleted independently, but cannot be encapsulated by a single revision element, since their representation in WordprocessingML is the start or end XML tag for the custom XML markup which it represents. Therefore, the start/end "cross structure" annotation format surrounds the WordprocessingML region to which this move destination applies.

The following restrictions shall be applied to this element:

  • If this element occurs without a corresponding <customXmlMoveFromRangeEnd> element (§2.13.5.8) with a matching @id attribute value, then it shall be ignored and no move source information shall be applied to the custom XML elements by this element.

  • If this element and its paired start encapsulate a range with no custom XML markup, then they shall be ignored and may be omitted when the document is subsequently saved.

  • If this element and its paired end occur outside of a valid move source container (§2.13.5.24; §2.13.5.23) with a matching move destination container (§2.13.5.28; §2.13.5.27), then custom XML markup in this region shall be treated as if it was inserted

  • If multiple start elements exist with the same @id attribute value, then the each instance in the document shall be matched with an end in document order, and unmatched starts (no corresponding end) shall be handled as described above.

example: 
<w:body>
  <w:p/>
  <w:customXml … >
    <w:p/>
  </w:customXml>
  <w:p/>
</w:body>

If the second paragraph is moved to the end of the document with revisions enabled. This revision must therefore be stored using the custom XML markup revision "cross structure" syntax, as follows:

<w:body>
  <w:p/>
  <w:moveFromRangeStart w:id="0" w:name="move1" w:displacedByCustomXml="next"/>
  <w:customXmlMoveFromRangeStart w:id="1"/>
  <w:customXml … >
    <w:p/>
  </w:customXml>
  <w:customXmlMoveFromRangeEnd w:id="1"/>
  <w:moveFromRangeEnd w:id="0" w:displacedByCustomXml="prev"/>
  <w:p/>
  <w:moveToRangeStart w:id="2" w:name="move1" w:displacedByCustomXml="next"/>
  <w:customXmlMoveToRangeStart w:id="3"/>
  <w:customXml … >
    <w:p/>
  </w:customXml>
  <w:customXmlMoveToRangeEnd w:id="3"/>
  <w:moveFromRangeEnd w:id="2" w:displacedByCustomXml="prev"/>
</w:body>

The <customXmlMoveFromRangeStart> element delimits the start of the region in which all custom XML elements have been moved from this location with revisions enabled. Since this element only affects custom XML, any text in the region is not revision marked moved by this element when present, but the corresponding physical characters for the custom XML element are. ]

Attributes

Description

<author> (Annotation Author)

Specifies the author for an annotation within a WordprocessingML document.

If this attribute is omitted, then no author shall be associated with the parent annotation type.

<w:… w:id="1" w:author="Example Author">
  …
</w:…>

The <author> attribute specifies that the author of the current annotation is Example Author, which may be used as desired. ]

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_String simple type (§2.18.89).

<date> (Annotation Date)

Specifies the date information for an annotation within a WordprocessingML document. The use of this information is outside of the scope of this Office Open XML Standard.

If this attribute is omitted, then no date information shall be associated with the parent annotation type.

<w:… w:id="1" w:date="2006-01-01T10:00:00">
  …
</w:…>

The <date> attribute specifies that the date of the current annotation is January 1st 2006 at 10:00 AM, which may be used as desired. ]

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_DateTime simple type (§2.18.15).

<id> (Annotation Identifier)

Specifies a unique identifier for an annotation within a WordprocessingML document. The restrictions on the @id attribute, if any, are defined by the parent XML element.

If this attribute is omitted, then the document is non-conformant.

<w:… w:id="1" … >
  …
</w:…>

The <id> attribute specifies that the ID of the current annotation is 1. This value is used to uniquely identify this annotation within the document content. ]

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_DecimalNumber simple type (§2.18.16).
