SetType
function SetType(sType: nextPage | oddPage | evenPage | continuous | nextColumn = null): voidDescription
Specifies a type of the current section. The section type defines how the contents of the current section are placed relative to the previous section. WordprocessingML supports five distinct types of section breaks:
- Next page section breaks (the default if type is not specified), which begin the new section on the following page.
- Odd page section breaks, which begin the new section on the next odd-numbered page.
- Even page section breaks, which begin the new section on the next even-numbered page.
- Continuous section breaks, which begin the new section on the following paragraph. This means that continuous section breaks might not specify certain page-level section properties, since they shall be inherited from the following section. These breaks, however, can specify other section properties, such as line numbering and footnote/endnote settings.
- Column section breaks, which begin the new section on the next column on the page.
Parameters

nextPage | oddPage | evenPage | continuous | nextColumndefault: null The section break type.
