Can contain
((para | p | title | h1 | h2 | h3 | h4 | h5 | h6 | pre | xpre)?, li*)

Purpose

This lets you declare an ordered list. You can control details on alignment, colors, fonts, etc.

For bullet types you can choose from:

  • 'I': Roman numerals (capitals)
  • 'i': Roman numerals (lower case)
  • '1': Arabic numerals
  • 'A': Capital letters
  • 'a': Lowercase letters

You may wish to use a listStyle for consistency.

Check out our docs page on this.

Example usage

Simple example:

<story>
    <ol bulletType="a">
        <li><para>Item 1</para></li>
        <li><para>Item 2</para></li>
    </ol>
</story>

Detailed example:

<story>
    <ol bulletOffsetY="2" bulletColor="red" bulletFontName="Times-Roman">
        <li bulletColor="blue" bulletFontName="Helvetica">
            <para>Welcome to RML 1</para>
        </li>
        <li>
            <ul bulletOffsetY="-4" bulletColor="red" bulletFontName="Times-Roman" bulletFontSize="5" rightIndent="10">
                <li bulletColor="blue" bulletFontName="Helvetica">
                    <para>unordered 1</para>
                </li>
                <li>
                    <para>unordered 2</para>
                </li>
            </ul>
        </li>
    </ol>
</story>
