Summary: Improvements to Text Pane bullets and numbers
Key: PIVOT-1062
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-1062
Project: Pivot
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: wtk
Reporter: Roger Lee Whitcomb
Assignee: Roger Lee Whitcomb
Fix For: 2.1.0
Right now the options for NumberdList and BulletedList in TextPane are
relatively limited. Numerous improvements could be made.
Numbered List
* options for punctuation: none, period, right paren after, parens around,
right bracket after, brackets around, right brace after, braces around, hyphen
* option for number of spaces after: zero, 1 (default), 2, or tab
* option to specify a leading word (such as "Chapter", "Section", or
"Appendix", or the section, paragraph characters (§ or ❡)
* option for cascading (so that subsequent indent levels have 1. then 1.1, then
1.1.1 (requires knowledge of hierarchy)
* option for word only (so that each level has "Section", "Heading",
"Paragraph", etc.
Bulleted List
* there are a great variety of dingbats available in Unicode, such as
asterisks, many more bullet circles, squares, stars, etc.
* image bullets could be supported, where you include a small gif, png, bmp,
whatever
* options for spacing as above
In general you could specify a separate font size for these, in order to
emphasize or make more (or less) prominent.
Perhaps even more flexibility could be added once these basic improvements are
implemented. But, I think these cover the vast majority of use-cases from
word-processing apps currently available.
