Fragment template

Key point: Defines reusable fragment content for a specific fragment type.

A fragment template associates a fragment @type to some predefined content that can be reused when creating new fragments in the document.

Fragment templates are defined in the document template so they are only available for documents of the same document type. Unless the document section is restricted to a specific fragment type, the templates can be used anywhere in the document.

The template only defines content for a single fragment which must contain only one of the following:

When fragment templates are available in a document, they can be selected when in edit mode by clicking the icon to insert a new fragment and selecting a fragment type from the drop-down.

For developers

Fragment templates are defined within the document template using the <t:fragment> element.

For example:

<t:fragment type="outcome">
  <t:description>Adds a learning outcome</t:description>
  <fragment>
    <heading level="3">Outcome</heading>
    <para>Type description here</para>
  </fragment>
</t:fragment>

You can restrict the type of fragment that users can select within a section using the @fragmenttype attribute.

See developer documentation for <t:fragment>.
