a file ods and file odt

The idea is that when mailing with LibreOffice Writer. Certain sections of the text are hidden under certain conditions.

click on the « Edit » menu, then on « Exchange database » and define the file « tableau.ods ».
designate a paragraph as a section
check “hide” in « edit section »
enter « état== "visible" »

The entire section disappears.

When you close and save the file. When opened, the section reappears.

Hello,
Can you film what you've done?
I just did it again with another document.
I started my video by showing that I'm on LibreOffice 25.
