<= [[plugin:ODT|ODT Plugin]] homepage ===== Modifying the style of lists ===== The following description is based on LibreOffice. Search the internet for other descriptions, e.g. for OpenOffice. The style for lists and list contents can be changed like this in LibreOffice: - Choose //"Styles and Formatting"// from the //"View"// menu or press **F11** - Right click on the desired headline style and choose //"Modify..."// from the context menu - A dialog will open showing the available style settings - Modify the settings as desired - Click on //"OK"// - Save and close the document - Always remember to re-upload the changed ODT document/template to your wiki with the media manager For lists there are two different style families used for styling a list: list styles and paragraph styles. The following list styles are used by the ODT plugin: * //"List 1"// for unordered lists * //"Numbering 1"// for ordered lists The paragraph styles used for lists are named accordingly:\\ For unordered lists: * //"List 1 Content"// * //"List 1 Content First"// * //"List 1 Content Last"// For ordered lists: * //"Numbering 1 Content"// * //"Numbering 1 Content First"// * //"Numbering 1 Content Last"// The //"...First"// and //"...Last"// paragraph styles are children of the basic paragraph list style. So //"Numbering 1 Content First"// and //"Numbering 1 Content Last"// are children of //"Numbering 1 Content"//. And the same relation exists for the unordered lists paragraph styles. All text in a list will use the paragraph style //"List 1 Content"// or //"Numbering 1 Content"// respectively. The only exception is the first and last paragraph of a list. The first paragraph uses the paragraph style //"List 1 Content First"// or //"Numbering 1 Content First"// respectively. The last paragraph uses the paragraph style //"List 1 Content Last"// or //"Numbering 1 Content Last"// respectively. In this way the //"...First"// and //"...Last"// styles can be used to generate a different spacing between the list items themselves and the list and other content. Let's have a look at an example: {{ https://github.com/LarsGit223/dokuwiki-plugin-odt/raw/master/documentation/screenshots/LibreOfficeNumberingListStyleExample.png?nolink }} For this example the following spacing has been set in the different styles: | ^ Spacing ^^ ^ ODT style ^ Above paragraph ^ Below paragraph ^ | Text Body | None (for simplicity) | None (for simplicity) | | Numbering 1 Content First | 2,00 cm | 0,25 cm | | Numbering 1 Content | 0,25 cm | 0,25 cm | | Numbering 1 Content Last | 0,25 cm | 2,00 cm | Because the //"...First"// and //"...Last"// paragraph styles are children from the basic list styles, all changes made in the basic list styles will also affect the first and last paragraph of a list. E.g. if you change the font style in style //"Numbering 1 Content"// then it will also change the font style for the first and last paragraph. Only if you would modify the same setting in the styles //"Numbering 1 Content First"// or //"Numbering 1 Content Last"// then the first and last paragraph would use a different setting. That means you should follow these rules for list style modification: * if you want to change a setting for the whole list (e.g. font style, color...) then modify the styles //"Numbering 1 Content"// or //"List 1 Content"// respectively * if you want to change a setting only for the first and last paragraph (e.g. spacing) then modify the styles //"Numbering 1 First"// and //"Numbering 1 Last"// or //"List 1 First"// and //"List 1 Last"// respectively
