Description:
The TerSetListBullet method is a wrapper to the basic list mechanism functions: TerEditList, TerEditListOr, TerEditListLevel and TerSetParaList. This method provides most used features of the basic list functions. However, you might like to use the basic list function if you need further control of the lists. Please refer to the ListNumbering chapter for a discussion on using the basic list functions.
Examples:
Create a decimal numbered list of level 0 where the numbering prints as:
(1), (2), (3), Etc
tej.TerSetListBullet2(true,tej.LIST_DEC,0,1,"","","(~1~)",true);
Create a decimal numbered list of level 0 where the numbering prints as:
1., 2., 3., Etc.
tej.TerSetListBullet2(true,tej.LIST_DEC,0,1,"","","~1~.",true);
Create a decimal numbered list of level 1 where the numbering prints as:
1.1, 1.2, 1.3, etc.
tej.TerSetListBullet2(true,tej.LIST_DEC,1,1,"","","~1~.~2~",true);
Create a standard bullet list of level 1 with round bullet:
tej.TerSetListBullet2(true,tej.LIST_BLT,1,1,"","","",true);
Create a square bullet list of level 1 :
tej.TerSetListBullet2(true,tej.LIST_BLT,1,1,"","",new string((char)61607,1),true);
// unicode 61607 shows square
Create a arrow bullet list of level 1:
tej.TerSetListBullet2(true,tej.LIST_BLT,1,1,"","",new string((char)61656,1),true);
// unicode 61656 shows arrow symbol
Examples of other unicode bullets:
unicode 61558 : 4-diamond shaped bullet
unicode 61692: Check mark bullet
You can also any character value between 33 and 255 in the Wingdings character set to display a bullet.
Return Value: This function returns TRUE when successful.
