Could not extract content from a bookmark in a cell

Aspose.Words Product Family
1

Hi,

i tried to get the text from a bookmark placed in a cell.
But i always get the text from the first cell (‘123’) and not from the bookmark ‘456’).

I tried it via bookmarks directly and by using the code examples
Extract content from bookmark.

Here is the example file word_V1.zip (15.6 KB)
and the mention bookmark name is ‘DM_MAP_b84e0adcd8ea40d8a61ff8ae529c_0_1’

Kind regards,
SAP

@christoph_schroeder0,

Thanks for your inquiry. We have tested the scenario and managed to reproduce this issue. This issue is related to missing feature WORDSNET-721 (Improve table bookmarks). You will be notified via this forum thread once this feature is available. We apologize for your inconvenience.

If the BookmarkStart and BookmarkEnd nodes are inside a Cell node, you can extract the nodes of a cell using CompositeNode.GetChildNodes and import them into empty document using NodeImporter.ImportNode. Hope this helps you.

Thanks for you reply. I don’t get the workaround to extract the nodes of a cell.
Do you have a code example ? The function ‘CompositeNode.GetChildNodes’
ask for a NodeType as parameter, not for a node.

@christoph_schroeder0,

Thanks for your inquiry. Unfortunately, the shared workaround does not work due to missing feature WORDSNET-721. We will inform you via this forum thread once this feature is available. We apologize for your inconvenience.

Thanks for the reply. Did you in the meanwhile at least make any process on this issue or is there currently nobody working on it / the necessary and missing features?

Best regards,

Hi Tahir,

I wonder, if you have an update for me? It’s beginning of July, so maybe you already know, if the fix can be included in your July’s release?

Thank you and best regards,

The issues you have found earlier (filed as WORDSNET-721) have been fixed in this Aspose.Words for .NET 18.9 update and this Aspose.Words for Java 18.9 update.

We added support of bookmark import in Aspose.Words 18.9 version according to document structure. Now, bookmark position is preserved in document node structure on import and export of DOCX, DOC, WML documents. In previous versions of Aspose.Words, the BookmarkStart and BookmarkEnd nodes are imported into Aspose.Words’ DOM as inline node i.e. inside Paragraph node.
