A tagged text block in Lucanet XBRL Tagger can span multiple sections of a document.
When a single XBRL tag covers text that is distributed across different pages or chapters, the individual text sections are linked in a continuation chain. Each section in the chain is referred to as a continuation item.
The Continuation administration allows you to view, reorder, and manage all continuation items belonging to a selected tag in one place.
You have the following options for opening the Continuation administration dialog:
Via the context menu: Right-click a tagged text block in the Tagging area and select Continuation administration from the context menu:
Opening Continuation administration from the document
The menu item is disabled (grayed out) if the selected tag has no continuation chain, i.e., if it is a stand-alone tag without continuations.
Via the command bar: Click the search icon in the top bar of the XBRL document workspace or press CTRL + SHIFT + P to open the command bar. Search for Continuation administration and select the command.
Properties area: When you select a tagged text block in the Tagging area that is part of a continuation chain, the Continuation section is displayed in the Properties area:
The following functions are available in the Continuation administration dialog:

The position of the item in the source document (document position). Use this column to compare the custom order with the original document structure.
When you select a tagged text block in the Tagging area that is part of a continuation chain, the Continuation section is displayed in the Properties area. This section gives you a quick overview of the item's position in the chain, without having to open the full administration dialog.
