Excluding elements
You can exclude elements by name (e.g., "caption"
), function (e.g., figure.caption
), where-selector (e.g., raw.where(block: true)
), or label (e.g., <no-wc>
).
#show: word-count.with(exclude: (heading.where(level: 1), strike))
= This Heading Doesn't Count
== But I do!
In this document #strike[(excluding me)], there are #total-words words all up.
#word-count(total => [
You can exclude elements by label, too.
#[That was #total.words, excluding this sentence!] <no-wc>
], exclude: <no-wc>)
