To show or hide text. To reuse text and graphics from other $[officename] documents. To insert sections of text that uses a different column layout than the current page style. A section contains at least one paragraph. When you select a text and create a section, a paragraph break is automatically inserted at the end of the text. You can insert sections from a text document, or an entire text document as a section into another text document. You can also insert sections from a text document as links in another text document, or in the same document. To insert a new paragraph immediately before or after a section, click in front or behind the section, and then press Option Alt+Enter. Sections and Columns You can insert sections into an existing section. For example, you can insert a section containing two columns into a section that contains one column. A section layout, for example on the number of columns, has priority over the page layout defined in a page style.
