A numbering definition instance referenced by paragraphs in a document that comprises a numbering list.
Namespace: DevExpress.XtraRichEdit.API.Native
Assembly: DevExpress.RichEdit.v19.2.Core.dll
The NumberingList object is based on an abstract numbering definition which can be accessed via the NumberingList.AbstractNumberingList property.
Document paragraphs are included into a numbering list by using the ParagraphCollection.AddParagraphsToList method.
The list to which a specific paragraph belongs can be obtained via the Paragraph.ListIndex property.
For an example of use see the AbstractNumberingList article.
