Hi, I'm trying to change the color of the bullet point

here's my code

using WordDocument document = WordDocument.Create();

NumberingDefinitionsPart numberingPart = document._document.MainDocumentPart
    .AddNewPart<NumberingDefinitionsPart>("OSgBuNd6wIbboubIU5c0");
numberingPart.Numbering = new Numbering(
    new AbstractNum(
        new Level(
            new NumberingFormat() { Val = NumberFormatValues.Bullet },
            new LevelText() { Val = "•" },
            new RunProperties(
                new Color { Val = fontColorStr }
            ),
            new ParagraphProperties(
                new Indentation() { Left = "700", Hanging = "360" }
            )
        )
        { LevelIndex = 0 }
    )
    { AbstractNumberId = 1 },
    new NumberingInstance(
        new AbstractNumId() { Val = 1 }
    )
    { NumberID = 420 }
);

a function to generate list

    public static WordParagraph CreateCustomBulletListItem(WordDocument document, string text, string textColor, int fontSize)
    {
        var paragraph = new Paragraph();

        var numberingProperties = new NumberingProperties(
            new NumberingLevelReference() { Val = 0 },
            new NumberingId() { Val = 420 }
        );

        var textRunProperties = new RunProperties(
            new Color() { Val = textColor },
            new RunFonts() { Ascii = "Calibri", HighAnsi = "Calibri" },
            new FontSize() { Val = (fontSize * 2).ToString() }  // OpenXML uses half-points
        );

        var paragraphProperties = new ParagraphProperties(
            numberingProperties,
            new SpacingBetweenLines() { After = "0", Line = "240", LineRule = LineSpacingRuleValues.Auto }
        );

        // spacing properties
        SpacingBetweenLines spacingBetweenLines = new SpacingBetweenLines()
        {
            Before = "0", // Spacing before (in twips, 1/20 pt)
            After = "0",  // Spacing after (in twips, 1/20 pt)
            Line = "240", // Line spacing (240 twips = 12 points = single spacing)
            LineRule = LineSpacingRuleValues.Auto // Automatically adjust line spacing
        };

        paragraphProperties.Append(spacingBetweenLines);

        var textRun = new Run(
            textRunProperties,
            new Text(text)
        );

        paragraph.Append(paragraphProperties, textRun);

        return document.AddParagraph(
            new WordParagraph(document, paragraph)
        );
    }

creating the custom list

                CustomHorizontalLine(document);
                document.AddParagraph(RegulerStyle(""));

                CreateCustomBulletListItem(
                    document, "this is a test", fontColorStr, defaultFontSize
                );
                CreateCustomBulletListItem(
                    document, "this is a test2", fontColorStr, defaultFontSize
                );

                CustomHorizontalLine(document);
                document.AddParagraph(RegulerStyle(""));

the result is not quite satistying

How to get the default style like this ?

var softwareList = document.AddList(WordListStyle.Bulleted);
foreach (var skill in someData)
{
    var item = pccList.AddItem($"{skill.Name}", 0)
        .SetColor(fontColor);
    item.FontSize = defaultFontSize;
    item.LineSpacing = 240;
    item.LineSpacingAfter = 0;
    item.LineSpacingBefore = 0;
    item.LineSpacingRule = LineSpacingRuleValues.Auto;
}

thanks in advance

To be honest - I don't know :-)

Try looking at this PR:

• https://github.com/EvotecIT/OfficeIMO/pull/208

I started building something that would allow creating custom lists or loading ones, but I am not sure at the moment what is the state of it and whether it actually works
