Most of the time, content is conditioned by manually emplacing it in the outcomes of IF fields. This chapter shows how to do that with several different types of content. It describes the types of document elements which can be conditioned by placing them within IF fields and shows the techniques for applying conditions to tables and lists. The chapter also provides information on the use of bookmarks in conjunction with IF fields, both how to work with bookmarks themselves, and how they affect the process of hiding or revealing content. Index markers and what happens to them in conditional content are also discussed. This chapter gives diagrams and examples to show how to use multi-level (nested) IF fields to create fields that can provide more than two possible outcomes. And lastly, the chapter provides information about possible problems in the functioning of IF fields, and guidance on how to deal with them.
