Methods


addItem()

Add a new list item to the list.
Returns:
A promise that resolves to the ListItem object representing the newly added item.
Type
Promise.<Core.PDFNet.ListItem>

asContentElement()

Returns:
A promise that resolves to an object of type: "PDFNet.ContentElement"
Type
Promise.<Core.PDFNet.ContentElement>

continueList()

Continues the logical continuation of a particular list, even if other non-list content items have been created since the last call to AddItem(). This method is useful when splitting a sublist and wanting to continue the new items as part of the original sublist hierarchy. Note: Without calling ContinueList(), new list items created after a split (e.g., a split paragraph) would be added to the main list structure (above the split) based on their natural positions in the list/sublist hierarchy. Example usage: To continue a root-level list after a split, call ContinueList() on the root-level list.
Returns:
Type
Promise.<void>

getContentNodeIterator()

Retrieve a ContentElementIterator object from the list

The ContentElementIterator object can be used to traverse the children of the list.

Returns:
A promise that resolves to the ContentElementIterator object
Type
Promise.<Core.PDFNet.Iterator.<Core.PDFNet.ContentElement>>

getIndentationLevel()

Get the indentation level of the list.
Returns:
A promise that resolves to the indentation level.
Type
Promise.<number>

getListIdentifier()

Get the identifier of the list.
Returns:
A promise that resolves to the list identifier.
Type
Promise.<number>

getTextStyledElement()

Returns:
A promise that resolves to an object of type: "PDFNet.TextStyledElement"
Type
Promise.<Core.PDFNet.TextStyledElement>
