Subject: List styles
Dear TC members, I did some investigations for list styles. First of all I checked how a list styles can be switched off in a style derived from a style that specifies a list style. It seems to me that this is not possible at the moment. There is no attribute to do so, nor can the style:list-style-name attribute be empty. Interestingly, the OpenOffice.org application in fact has the issue that one may switch of a list style in the UI for paragraph styles, but this situation currently is lost when saving and reloading a file. To resolve this issue in our specification, we either a) could allow a style:list-style-name to be empty, or b) we could add an attribute similar to the "text:enable-numbering" we discussed last week, that in fact may have a better name. I personally would prefer solution a) here. We remaining issue is: If a graphic style contains a list style, and if this list style is switched off in a derived style, can this style by switched on in a further derived style again, and if so how. The following solution came into my mind here: c) The derived style may contain an empty <text:list-style> element. If it is present, all style settings are inherited from the ancestor style that defines a list style already. d) The list style can be referenced by a "special" value of the "style:list-style-name" attribute, like "*". e) The list style can be referenced by a "special" value of the "style:list-style-name" attribute, like "*", and in addition to this, the embedded list style in general will only be evaluated if a "style:list-style-name" attribute is present. f) like a), that is, we add an attribute similar to the "text:enable-numbering".
