Answer 1

As we can have several ng-content we can pass several array nodes for each of ng-content

Let's say we have the following dynamic component:

So when we're creating component dynamically we can inject one and more nodes for each of ng-content places:

this.vcRef.createComponent(factory, this.vcRef.length, null, [
  [document.createTextNode('Top ng-content - Header')],
  [
    document.createTextNode('First ng-content'), 
    document.createElement('br'), 
    document.createTextNode('First ng-content second row')
  ],
  [
    document.createTextNode('Second ng-content'), 
    document.createElement('br'), 
    document.createTextNode('Second ng-content second row')
  ]
]);
