Repeating sections with Word 2013

Hi!
I have a problem with repeating sections in Word 2013. In the samples, I see that a document should have content controls for "repeatsection" and "repeatsectionitem". But when I insert a repeat via the addin, I see only a "repeat" content control. When processing the document using the ContentControlBindingExtensions example, only the first item is inserted into the document, so no repeats can be found. Is there anything wrong in my steps, or can Word addin not yet be used for this in Word 2013?

Happy about each hint leading me the right way!

Markus

Please see https://www.docx4java.org/blog/2015/01/ ... rime-time/

"repeat content" controls are what you expect when you use the AddIn, and docx4j ought to process them. When you map the repeat, use the first of the children to be repeated, not the container. If you have any problems, please post your docx.
