Figuring out the list type

[ChrisBellBO]

Hi
I am trying to convert Word lists into HTML ul/ol lists. I've found IsListItem and ListItemLevel which gives me enough to figure out the structure of the list but I'm not sure how to find out if it is a numbered or bulleted list. I see AddList takes a WordListStyle parameter which looks like it might give me what I want, but that doesn't seem to be exposed anywhere. I can't find it on the underlying object either, any ideas?

I am probably not exposing anything.

Document has Lists property, which is WordList List, which is where it should be exposed. The "type" of the list is not stored on paragraphs, but at completely different place which is a nightmare to track

Looking at this test:

OfficeIMO/OfficeIMO.Tests/Word.Lists.cs

Lines 374 to 404 in 1df69dd

	[Fact]
	public void Test_SavingWordDocumentWithListsToStream() {
	var filePath = Path.Combine(_directoryWithFiles, "CreatedDocumentWithListsToStream.docx");
	var wordListStyles = (WordListStyle[])Enum.GetValues(typeof(WordListStyle));
	using (var document = WordDocument.Create()) {
	foreach (var listStyle in wordListStyles) {
	var paragraph = document.AddParagraph(listStyle.ToString());
	paragraph.SetColor(Color.Red).SetBold();
	paragraph.ParagraphAlignment = JustificationValues.Center;
	var wordList1 = document.AddList(listStyle);
	wordList1.AddItem("Text 1");
	}
	using var outputStream = new MemoryStream();
	document.Save(outputStream);
	File.WriteAllBytes(filePath, outputStream.ToArray());
	Assert.True(HasUnexpectedElements(document) == false, "Document has unexpected elements. Order of elements matters!");
	}
	using (var document = WordDocument.Load(filePath)) {
	Assert.Equal(wordListStyles.Length, document.Lists.Count);
	var abstractNums = document._wordprocessingDocument.MainDocumentPart!.NumberingDefinitionsPart!
	.Numbering.ChildElements.OfType<AbstractNum>().ToArray();
	for (var idx = 0; idx < abstractNums.Length; idx++) {
	var style = WordListStyles.GetStyle(wordListStyles[idx]);
	Assert.Equal(style, abstractNums[idx]);
	}
	}
	}

You could probably figure it out. I started exposing some things in:

• Add ability to add custom lists (simplified logic) #208

But it's not yet ready

Thanks
WordParagraph has a private listNumberId and WordList has a private _numberId so I think that's how I get the list for the list item
WordList has a private _abstractId which I guess is how I then get hold of the AbstractNum that holds the actual style
Then things get complicated. AbstractNum can have different styles at each level so I think it probably makes sense to have the style on the list item rather than on the list?

The list style is applied on the list level => as in the general ones, however each list item, depending on level may have it's own config, if the list is custom, which you can see in the linked PR.

So I guess exposing both makes sense => as in list has it's own type or custom, and then each list item would need to expose what it has
