Class: list template
Plural
list templates
Represents a single list template that includes all the formatting that defines a list. Each of the seven
formats (excluding None) found on each of the three tabs in the Bullets and Numbering dialog box
corresponds to a list template object. These predefined list templates can be accessed from the three
list gallery objects. Documents and templates can also contain lists of list templates.
Use list template index, where index is a number from 1 through 7, to return a single list template
from a list gallery. The following example returns the third list format (excluding None) on the
Numbered tab in the Bullets and Numbering dialog box.
set temp3 to list template 3 of list gallery 2
Note Some properties and commands--convert, for example--wont work with list templates that
are accessed from a list gallery. You can modify these list templates, but you cannot change their list
gallery type (bullet gallery, number gallery, or outline number gallery).
The following example sets an object variable equal to the list template used in the third list in the
active document, and then it applies that list template to the selection.
set myLT to list template 3 of active document
apply list format template (list format of text object of selection) ¬
list
template
myLT
To reset formatting to the original list format, use the
reset list gallery
command for the list gallery
object.
Remarks
After you have returned a list template object, use list level index, where index is a number from 1
through 9, to return a single list level object. With a list level object, you have access to all the
formatting properties for the specified list level, such as alignment, font object, number format, number
position, number style, and trailing character.
