Subsection element

Separate from the section element, the XML format supports the subsection element (<SubSection>). It is the same as <Section> except that it must have an ancestor element of type RootEntityElement or EntityElement. Because a subsection is underneath an entity in the hierarchy, it can have different types of children.

Subsection elements display differently than sections. Subsections do not have the same gray line as sections, and subsections appear mostly like other tree elements, but with an additional level of subsections. Use subsection elements to organize difference data into labeled folder-like sections. For example, you could organize the properties on an entity under a label named Properties by putting a <Properties> element underneath the <SubSection> element.

Subsection elements can have children of three types.

  • EntityElement
  • PropertiesElement
  • SubSectionElement
<SubSection label="displaykey.Web.Differences.LOB.Common.Coverages" sortorder="1">
  <Entity type="PersonalVehicleCov" parentpath="ENTITY.PersonalVehicle"/>
</SubSection>
