ListTemplate

Inheritance: java.lang.Object

public class ListTemplate

Specifies one of the predefined list formats available in Microsoft Word.

Remarks:

A list template value is used as a parameter into the M:Aspose.Words.Lists.ListCollection.Add(Aspose.Words.Lists.ListTemplate) method.

Aspose.Words list templates correspond to the 21 list templates available in the Bullets and Numbering dialog box in Microsoft Word 2003.

Examples:

Shows how to create a document that contains all outline headings list templates.


 public void outlineHeadingTemplates() throws Exception {
     Document doc = new Document();
     DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);

     List list = doc.getLists().add(ListTemplate.OUTLINE_HEADINGS_ARTICLE_SECTION);
     addOutlineHeadingParagraphs(builder, list, "Aspose.Words Outline - \"Article Section\"");

     list = doc.getLists().add(ListTemplate.OUTLINE_HEADINGS_LEGAL);

 }

     builder.getParagraphFormat().clearFormatting();
     builder.writeln(title);

     for (int i = 0; i < 9; i++) {
         builder.getListFormat().setList(list);
         builder.getListFormat().setListLevelNumber(i);

         String styleName = "Heading " + (i + 1);
         builder.getParagraphFormat().setStyleName(styleName);
         builder.writeln(styleName);
     }

     builder.getListFormat().removeNumbers();
